I am already involved in the political landscape and started a site/service called Raging Debate.com in August. A think tank has been started of some of the brightest economic and political minds which are what I call emerging leadership. Since I am in Consumer Healthcare, I wage the political war and contribute what I do best - in information technology.
The United States will kill it’s enemies. When we win large victories as in Iraq, I celebrate the victory. But I do not celebrate the loss of life on either side. I understand mankind’s destiny of societal evolution which is consolidation through theft or war. I also believe in Christ who admonished us to pray for our enemies. I pray we do not have to annihalate them and they see the error of there ways. But make no mistake, this last final conflict now brewing will be the largest and most destructive war in history. Every family in America will suffer casualties. But I will still pray for my enemies even as I point the barrel of a gun at them and pull the trigger.
I understand your position. My nephew is Sgt. Evan Vela. My heart is hardened. I make no apology. I see no escape for what is coming. The Moslems are what they are and will not change. I see them all as complicit in the “unrest”. So I feel no pity for any “civilians” caught up in the carnage.
“But make no mistake, this last final conflict now brewing will be the largest and most destructive war in history. Every family in America will suffer casualties. But I will still pray for my enemies even as I point the barrel of a gun at them and pull the trigger.”
I don’t pray for them anymore. I’m not as good a Christian as you are, it’s something I can’t help. They’ve done too much damage and killing too many people. 9-11 was when I stopped praying for them.
We’re heading toward a bloody peak because they’re not stopping their terrorism and decent people are fed up with their threats, killing, and unwillingness to evolve and stop killing innocent people. They’re bringing this misery onto themselves.
