"You can't say civilization don't advance -- for every war, they kill you in a new way."
WILL ROGERS
Yes, in war don't expect lollipops and daisies.
Each side, each enemy, will use whatever weapon can produce the most success in killing the other enemy.
Mustard gas.
Atomic Bombs.
Naplalm.
Agent Orange.
Depleted Uranium Weapons.
Nobody likes war.
But in a war you must support your side.
Either win or lose.
For better or worse.
Winning supersedes morals.
The end justifies the means.
NOT ALLOWED: subjective, emotional value judgments such as "I believe that using DU weapons is immoral." (But necessary)
Although there is no absolute certainty or convincing scientific evidence that these Depleted Uranium weapons have produced the thousands and thousands and thousands of injuries and illnesses in Iraqi citizens and U.S. soldiers...still, there is the question of why these illnesses and injuries exist.
The effects strongly suggest that DU is the cause.
Question and doubt this until Doomsday.
Assert that land mines and cars are more dangerous than DU.
Say that these cancers, birth defects, and illnesses are caused by something else; or that no one knows for sure why they exist.
Use jargon and arguments from logic and philosophy.
The sicknesses and illnesses remain. And continue.
The tragedy has already occurred.
GOOD AMERICANS like GOOD GERMANS must accept what their Government dictates.
Whine and writhe, complain and criticize…it’s us or them.
But as Pogo once said,
“We have met the enemy and he is us.”
