"You can celebrate anything you want..." - John Lennon
I won't believe that 4,000+ solidiers have died, over ten years, to see one man dead. That doesn't sit well with me.
I'd rather believe they died Protecting Our Nation, in the long run, in spite of the motives of powerful suits.
This particular Hit doesn't stir patriotism inside of the cockles of my heart. It stirs skepticism and disappointment in the bloodlust of the american public. It makes me think about gnarly terms like "mission creep"
But there is hope in the Maybes the situation has created:
If the troops come home,
if the gas prices come down,
if Donald Trump finally goes Away (at least from the Presidential race)
if Obama can use the second term he just secured to do Good
than I will be able to look at this Ten Year Assassination with a twinkle, when the time for reflection and hindsight is upon us.
Until then we continue to hope for the best.
I heart you.
