ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Well then it sounds like you need to have the courage of your own convictions and pick up a rifle and go to Iraq. Maybe you could start up the Abraham Lincoln brigade again! There is more than one way to change the world, Google and Ghandi didn't even have a stick. 'The pen is mightier than the sword' there is a reason these sayings have been around a long time. After the pointless violence reasonable people have to come to envisage a way forward to avoid more pointless violence. Most modern wars don't really do much, thousands die and then everyone agrees it shouldn't happen again. If I'm being honest most modern wars are simply a training exercise for western forces. So what do you propose to do about it, play the Caped Avenger? We had three killings here in the Myrtle Beach, SC area over the last month or so. What would you do about it, fly over and tell the local cops and D.A. to step aside? And there's that word again, "world." Each country is responsable for itself and it's people. As for Ghandi he never went to Detroit did he? There's a good bumper sticker in the U.S.; "Think locally act locally." You seem to be suffering from, "The Great White Bwana" syndrome.
