1. That's the question, isn't it. |

Ask me again why I can't stomach the idea of voting for this man again.

the MIC profits greatly from it, which could be indefinitely. Nobody is going to pry the lucrative contracts out of anybody's hands and the Pentagram is at the helm with its vested interest in "defense".
Or, until the Empire collapses. Whichever comes first.

4. Well, that guy in the helmet has to die |
|
So that the death of the guy he's carrying won't be wasted. And then, of course, whoever retrieves his body has to die, so that his death won't be in vain. And then . . . Well, you get the idea. We can't dishonor the dead by suddenly depriving them of the company of more dead.
No, it doesn't make any sense to me, either. But because I'm one of those goddammed pacifists who thinks that all war is sin, I have been solemnly and loudly assured that I don't understand the first thing about war.

Just more BushCo but with the patina of sanity and reason.
Still, you need to ask that last service-member to die for a lie and the profit it reaps.
