"WHAT IF THERE WAS A WAR AND NOBODY CAME?"
* * * * * * * * * * * *
What if there was a war and nobody came?
What would happen to the Memorial names?
Would there be a need to have Veteran's Day?
What if there were a war and nobody played?
*
What if all those that died suddenly came home?
Would there still be someone waiting by the phone?
What would happen when they walked into the room?
What would happen at the Unknown Soldier's tomb?
*
Would history be changed if they all came back?
Would there have been Civil Wars, World Wars, Iraq?
Would there have been a September Nine One One?
Would mothers and fathers still bury their sons?
*
What if there was a war and nobody came?
Would would happen the the Memorial names?
Would there be a need to have Veteran's Day?
What if there were a war and nobody played?
* * * * * * * * * * * *

Unfortunately, war is a fact of life and always has been throughout human history. But you are right, if we all decided not to 'play' the game then wars could not happen. A solemn message for all

When you read all of your comments keep this in mind Karla, please! You haver a variety of opinions, which is what communists fled Russia for, and Germans flewd hitlers germany, and Vietnamese fled Viet nam for and I could go on but I think you see what I'm saying is that here in our FREE AMERICA everyone has a say,so wouldn't it be nice to think that just once in awhile those who oppose everything american could think to themselves "How nice I can say and do pretty much anything I want here including being anti-American and nobody makes me shut-up or leave! Like they would in any other country! Which is why we are still the one everyone comes to!!!AND THIS IS WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING IN IRAQ TO MAINTAIN, OUR FREEDOM!

IF AMERICA HAD SAID NO TO EUROPE WOULD HITLER HAVE BEEN DEFEATED?

There is a campaign to say no to drugs, more needed is one to say no to war.

This is a good question and makes you think. The first problem started way back when. Unfortunately as long as there are two people on earth they find a way to argue with each other. Better that the arguement never started.
