How Much Did The Politicians Spent/Spending On War
I've read staggering figures spent by politicians on war...India just closed a deal, spending big bucks to upgrade their military defenses...why didn't they spent this money on the poor? Food, toilets, education...etc? Anyone from India are more than welcome to post the estimate amount.
USA, how much did they spend on Irag and Afghanistan alone? Any idea at all? I've read millions and millions, billions and billions...and worse could be trillions.
UK? How much did they pitched in for Iraq and Afghanistan?
Other countries?
This is an impromptu blog, have no time to post figures here but would appreciate if anyone could fill in the blanks here.
Politicians conned the people, specially the poor..deprived them of their human rights...and yet many are still blind and strongly believe in politics while the entire world are suffering from hunger, war, diseases, and many other afflictions, ain't that clever?
Wondering when the world will wake up, when the people will take a stand...and when that happens ? Will you stand with them ?

But how realistically do you propose to eliminate conflict that rises to war is the question. War should not happen, the question is why does it happen?
YOUTUBE War Is A Racket by Smedley Butler numoleen
Smedley Butler was a Major General, USMC and twice recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor.
I reckon he knew whereof he spoke.
The above vid is a highly condensed version...less than ten minutes.
The entire book is also available on YouTube.
Here we go...

YouTube The War Machine - Hermann Goerring interviewed on how the people are led to war
It's only 'bout three minutes, y'all. Worth a listen.
Generl Butler...circa 1932
Reichsmarschall Goerring...circa 1946
Prior to that...
USS Maine
Since then...
Gulf of Tonkin Incident
USS Liberty Incident
Operation Northwoods
9-11
Others?
What a difference 70, 80 or 100 years make...NOT!
If they can't join in a war that's already there, they'll start one on some pretext.
The munition companies need a profit, and no government wants a bored army.
There's profit in war, not in peace.
Interesting...
That's what I'm talking about...for us to stand up...enough is enough....not this on-going a**-kissing in politics these days...let's look at the politicians for who they really are and for what they stand for...
If government won't close these ammunition manufacturers, then people must stand together and do it...not just go along with whatever the government decides...government is made up of lots of criminals, no point in following them...we pay taxes, for what?
you're wrong...the majority abhors wars but because we have a corrupt government and evil politicians...war happens...worse part is many of us consented
Bringing down one government will make no difference whatsoever.
On a smaller scale, look at the might of the NRA in the US. Obama tried to limit personal weapons, not even touching real weapons of war, and how far did he get?
War pays. People suffer, but war pays.
will defend our own ideologies against an aggressor.
Toy blog...my toy is just a little bigger than a thumb, not something to brag about really
it's never been used...still gift-wrapped, not my kind of thing, I think I will sell it to someone who might be interested
why not? I know of some people who didn't like the gifts given to them and they re-wrap them and give them to others
into the body cavity.
my thoughts exactly...I don't know which part of it that others find pleasurable
just not for me, just imagining myself inserting rubber in any of my "cavity" is pure
I was googling for funny "toys" to contribute to the toy blog, here's what I found online...
some people collect them
wondering if this is their way of curing hemmorhoids
