War Again

 

War Again

 

                Again, we are at war, again without congressional approval. Our dictator just makes a nod, and our war machine goes into action.  This sort of war does not involve ground troops and so seems more sanitary for our side. Jets, guided missiles and drones: pilots rarely see who they kill. But kill they do.  I oppose war unless we have little choice.  The Buddha Way does not oppose self-defense.

 

                Still, it is always a terrible choice to kill. Our dictator has never served, has never had to engage in combat. He dodged the draft multiple times. What does he know but a life of ease and wealthy privilege? Yet he unleashes the most powerful killing machine the world has ever seen without the authority to do so. This, among many things, makes him less a president and more a dangerous dictator.

 

                Plainly, he should be removed from office.
