I am disappointed at the implied criticism of the US involvement in WWII and the atomic bomb use. Freedom has a cost in a world with Hitler, Putin, and Xi.

I am afraid we are inching towards another war. I would like to see this one settled by golf, checkers, or duels between the major leaders.

The human race is an abomination. Until you truly understand that, you will never understand its motivation for going to war.

Such a profound piece!
