That is the good part about forums such as this. One is free to 'have one off the wrist' in public and still enjoy it. I presonally like the colour of the 'discuss' one better, for the original is a bit too 'pinko'.

In War We Trust

small minds,big minds.. whats the point? We TRUST WAR. thats the point. not trying to be 'tongue in cheek' here, we must observe whats happening in the world, whats the mentality that we employ when faced with hardships or troubles.. WAR. this is not a secret. we think that WAR is going to 'save' us from something, dangerous or 'evil'
Depleted Uranium. LEARN ABOUT IT
Its what all the Generals are so proud of with the 'ability to tear through the armor of a tank like a knife through butter'.
We are Screwing UP OUR PLANET in the name of National Security.
THIS IS ABSURD. IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE to the targets(cities and countries) that we toss these highly radioactive(4.5 billion year shelf life)weapons upon. This is RIDICULOUS.
Not to mention all the radiocactive waste we end up having to bury in our own yards.
What??
This is Happening because IN WAR WE TRUST. Accept it. Canada Mines Uranium. We are helping make the Wars in Iraq a Reality, regardless of what our policy makers tell us. We only need to look to ourselves to see many different Wars being played out in our daily lives.
WHY?
Are we really threatening each other to the point where we need nuclear(radioactive) Weapons to 'deal with' threats??
WHY?
because thers people out there in the world that "Hate Freedom"?
What??
Communists, Socialists, Terrorists they all Hate freedom and so the US going for the steady production of 500 new Hydrogen bombs per year. They've already got something like 15000 H-Bombs stockplied, some (like 2000)STILL poised and ready to be launched to Russia.
WHY?? that threat is long gone already right?
"never let your guard down" thats the mentality of WAR that we are TRUSTING.
Canada needs to START ITs OWN Full Fledged CAMPAIGN AGAINST WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, STARTING WITH THE KINGPINS OF SUCH WEAPONS, THE US of A.
Can We(the people of the world)count on the Canadian Government to Stand Up Against Nuclear Weapons, and Nuclear Power, anything that creates More Nuclear Waste(as well as Mining it for other countries to use)??
This is somehting that needs to be addressed, and it has everything to do with foreign policy, because War is offensive to ourselves and to all(foreign) life on the Planet.
We Trust War. What is War going to get us? what has it gotten us in the medical community verses germs? What has it gotten us since we went to War against Drugs? What do you think its going to give the Western World now that we've got a War on terrorism??
We Trust War like its a solution. like it can SAVE US from something that threatens us.
this is what Canadian politicians need to look at. How are We thinking?
WHAT is National Security? we need to redefine these issues. Security of WHAT.
our Economy? or our Resources.
People will still Live with a less than good Economy. People will not Live without Resources. but we go on sacrificing our ROOTS for the FRUITS and its NOT going to Sustain us!
This is what I Hope Canadian Politicians start discussing and questioning about their own position in a world full of foreigners.

I agree with what you are saying. The USA is, also, seemingly lacing their ammunition wirh plutonium. They now acknowledge, this may be what vererans of the first war on Iraq are suffering from. What about the people who live in these countries?
While demanding other countries should not possess or use nuclear weapons; the Americans appear to be going ahead full steam stockpiling these world endangering weapons themselves
