What's wrong with such warmongers? Do they not realise that the USA invasion of Iraq and the aftermath has brought the economy of the USA and most of the World into bankruptcy? Now they want to sell to Europe's government Canada's government and its Own missile war systems to the tune of multi-trillions of US dollars. I note that "they" say defence systems - yet as we all are aware - the best means of defence is attack! Let's put "Peace" back on the agenda of inter-governmental relations! Let's put Total Disarmament on that agenda - too - whether nuclear or not! War brings death and misery to too many human beings the World over today! INSTEAD - Spend Our Taxes on Peoples' health and education! Spend on food production to feed All of Humanity with satisfaction guaranteed at selling rates affordable to All! IN THE 21st. CENTURY - It is to the shame of all governments Worldwide that 1 in 6 starve everyday - that Disease is still rampant throughout the Globe - that Full education today is for the wealthier and not for all! That there are No jobs to earn wages from for 1 in 3 persons in some countries - in others 1 in 5 of us! That the Old are no longer valued in ALL societies - being forced to subsist even where Pensions are awarded - Worldwide today! Let's bring back Sanity into inter-governmental relations! The "excuse" for not so doing everywhere up until now "is that the problem remains" of "Where To Begin" - "What's To Be Done". Perhaps the answer is "Grasp the nettle - even though it painful to do so" or "Get into the mindset" - "GET OUT OF THE RUT OF WARMONGERING" everywhere!!!. ///snowyone.
