Boys turned into men
When wars began. . .
Our forefathers
Fought for freedom-

Boys still become men
War is technology. . .
Drones are killing machines
Freedom?

i'm with you on this one, ms. D. Vegas.. war was never meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous.. i forgot who said that.. ahaha war is profitable.. Carlyle knows that well and sad to say your country does, too.. with all of these happening in our world, i also agree with ms. JMS Bell, freedom comes from within.. a very basic ideology but too hard to grasp especially if we're still stuck in the obsolete paradigm of thinking, like attaining peace through fear and war.. yes, heal ourselves, we heal the world..

I thank all of you for your views...I am not questioning our freedom
but the freedom of people in other countries...We interfere in their polices and get into their wars...Iran, Afghanistan, etc. Bush got us into war, "Mass destruction of chemicals," which were never found...

'freedom from what?'the real question should sound like this. . . you cannot be out of the circle. . . this planet is round, which means that what is done to the left returns to you from the right, the great Columbus once found out. Cheers, alex

If drones could be made to do all our fighting in wars, then our military men would not die in useless battle...-e-

WE ARE ONLY TOTALLY 'FREE'... IN THE LOVE OF GOD! WE MUST NOT FORGET THAT THIS WORLD IS SPINNING TO ITS END, THUS, THE 'FREEDOM' THAT WE SPEAK OF THESE DAYS MUST FLOW FROM WITHIN. IN SPITE OF TECHNOLOGY, GOOD OR BAD, IT IS ONLY FROM WITHIN THAT THE LIGHT OF TRUE FREEDOM CAN SPREAD ITS RAYS IN WHATEVER DIRECTION 'EACH' FEELS CALLED TO GO. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

I cringe every time I see our valiant boys (men) using flamethrowers to root out reluctant animals (the way we treat our enemy) from their holes in the ground. I can imagine what it's like to be burned alive underground or lose all fresh air to the hot blast of flame. But then, whoever said war was humane.

Reagan even had the vision of Star Wars war carried out in outer space with machines killing machines.

Eh . . . Questioning our freedom? Take a good look at the communist regimes across the world. We live in a Disney World compared to them. Yep, we could be better, but the illegal immigrants crossing our borders know what it is like elsewhere.
