AHH, don't have much to say, so i'll just give you another quote:

"I know about people who talk about suffering for the common good. It's never bloody them! When you hear a man shouting "Forward, brave comrades!" you'll see he's the one behind the bloody big rock and the one wearing the only really arrow-proof helmet!"

-- Rincewind gives a speech on politics. (Terry Pratchett, Interesting Times)

Again, this is quite true. You see it happening all throughout history, exspically in wars where the USA is involved. The guy at the top is always at the rear where he is safe from everything while the footsoldiers are at the front getting shot, stabbed, cut, crushed, burnt, blown to bits, posioned and what have you. And in wars nowadays, the soldiers have to obey the guys above them even though the overmentioned people are totally useless. And at the end of everything, it is those same morons who gets all the glory and honour and medals and Purple Hearts and what not. All this while the people who risked their lives get hurt - even dead! - and they don't get much of anything unless they get wounded, in which case they just get a worthless Purple Heart! Those guys've lost arms and limbs and watch they friends die just to protect their country and the people living there, and when they come back, they get looked down on and spat at by the very people they've laid down their lives for. And this is because the bloody civilians are trying to get the war to stop but they have no idea what goes on in the fields of fire.

Haiz, those poor soldiers...lets now have a moment of slience for the warriors who have fought and have fallen in battle.....

Well, i've sure typed a whole bunch of stuff without intending to. lolz. Yeah whatever. See you around.
