New Agreed, but not all wars are religious in nature.
I'm not sure what we are arguing about but I think it's religions relationship to wars. WWI and WWII were non-religious in nature, would you agree? The American Civil war was also non-religious.

So I guess some wars can be blamed on religion and others can be blamed on the struggle for power, although "power" wars are often disguised with a "righteous" religious cloak.

New Not so overtly as this one, perhaps
But God is ever on Our Side, in each one (each side too!). Armies have Chaplains. The businessmen left behind, unfortunately unable to er serve - get those lumps in throats as the martyrs return inert. (We just don't *call* them Martyrs, but treat the bodies identically.
Our propaganda == Islam's propaganda.)

[link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=15301|Don Richards' little Twain find]

Don't you get it yet? The conditioning starts in the crib, and before the first cap-pistol. And Twain wasn't able to publish his little homily - in US and while alive. Posthumous. Accident... that we ever even saw it.

(Check out Karstens 'find' too -in Open Forum re Army subsidizing video 'training' games) Rest case.

It's ~ about sheep grazing. Docilely.
