Memorial Day: The Glorification Of War, Not War’s Victims - PopularResistance.Org Rather than being haunted by the ghosts of war, many Americans are very proud of all its soldiers killed while killing foreigners for the military industrial complex and the super-rich who own the country. For the U.S.A. is a warfare state; it has been waging imperialistic overseas wars for a long, long time, and using its soldiers as cannon fodder. Most families of dead soldiers find it impossible to admit that their loved ones died in vain, even if courageously. Without waging wars, the U.S. economy, as presently constituted, would collapse. Business goes on as usual. https://popularresistance.org/memorial-day-the-glorification-of-war-not-wars-victims/
