Interesting thought from Patrick Buchanan:

"Since Bush I, we have intervened in Panama, Kuwait, Iraq, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Libya. Had Sens. John McCain and Joe Lieberman gotten their way, we would have been fighting Russians in Georgia and bombing Iran.

Add up all those we have killed, wounded, widowed, orphaned or uprooted, and the number runs into the millions. All these wars have helped mightily to bankrupt us.

Have they made us more secure?"

Is dirt really such a Bad Thing? by Steve Jones

    "Germ-free mice do not thrive: their immune system is feeble, their bowels do not move as they should, and they are generally unhealthy. Such animals are also anxious and obsessive. Our internal bacteria make plenty of the nerve transmitters associated with mood, and inner filthiness may even play a part in keeping us cheerful.
     The developed world is in the midst of an attack of conditions in which the body’s defences fail to respond properly to external enemies. They include allergies, multiple sclerosis, juvenile onset diabetes and irritable bowel syndrome, in all which the immune system turns upon itself.
     Too much hygiene can be harmful. Children from affluent families without a dog, living in cities rather than the country, who stay home rather than going to nursery are shielded from infection – and are more likely to suffer from such diseases."

The 1st Great War of the 21st Century Has Begun by Gerald Celente

     "Only in a mad political science fiction movie could a President engaged in perpetuating two unjust, immoral, interminable, and expensive wars begun by his predecessor, take his nation into yet another unjust, immoral, expensive, and, in all likelihood, interminable war … and expect a happy ending.
     Eight years of war in Iraq and 11 in Afghanistan have resolved nothing and served only to inflame anti-American sentiment around the world, drain the US treasury, kill and wound hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of innocent people, and destroy the lives, limbs, and souls of thousands of American troops.
     Batting zero on the battlefield, the mad political scientists have stepped up to the plate again. Despite nothing but failure, President Obama has decided, unilaterally, to squander still more American men and money in a war on Libya, promising that this time he won’t strike out."

Food for thought: The State vs. Christian Moral Values by Scott Lazarowitz

     "If one's loyalty is to the State, as opposed to being loyal to the Rule of Law and to moral values, then one's loyalty to the State requires one to support acts by . . . the State that are immoral, thus un-Christian. Unfortunately, too many people, in their intellectual laziness and their passive, blind obedience to anything the State tells them, have accepted their government's crimes against others . . . in the name of "fighting terrorism," or punishing people for using drugs or whatever.
     It is very difficult for me to believe that someone who is Christian-minded and who believes in the aforementioned moral values could approve of a government knowingly apprehending and detaining totally innocent individuals at random as the Bush Administration had done for years following 9/11. Or the U.S. military's and CIA's indiscriminate drone-bombing murders of innocent Afghani and Pakistani civilians. Those who believe that's okay but don't believe it's okay for Al-qaeda or the Pakistani government to fly remote-controlled drones over the U.S. and indiscriminately murder innocent Americans do not believe in the philosophy, 'Don't do unto others what one would not want others to do unto you.'"
