Well I'm bored so I figure I'll let some of you see me and a few of my freinds point of veiw on our status in the world today.
* Before I start I am not bashing anyone in the military, My grandfather and father bothe server along with many of my family and freinds, I respect them all for doing their jobs and doing what they have to do*
I look at the world in a percarious way as of now. I am one of the more informed youths as i watch the news and read alot of online news sites. From what I understand we are picked our questionable fight with Iraq
over Wmd's that we can't find. A funny man once said " If I had Wmd's I think an invasion would be a nice time to use them." I also find us now picking a fight with Iran and some other countries. It seems to me that
we *The Us* have been picking alot of fighs lately and making alot of people angery. The way me and my circle see it, we are becomeing the germany of WW2 only without the allies. For the most part I disagree with
the war, I dislike bush and many of his poloicies, I don't really like what we are sending our boys to do. I do however respect the boys and girls overseas for doing their jobs regaudless and being good soldiers.
For me it seems like we are all being lead down a very dark path that won't end to well.
As for the home country and all those not at war what seemed to start as just childish talk of rebellion ranging from kill them all to just the president has grown and spread into a " We need to fix our country before someone else decides to, By any means even violence" mentality has began brewing and spreading among the teenagers and adults. I fear that we may be on the brink of another large scale war, civil war, or both. I support the idea that we need to fix alot of things in our country and that I would even fight for it as much as I don't want to.
I feel as do many others that we have fallen from the old stature of a free country of unlimited opertunities to a small minded, opressive, and down right faciest place. As these are only opinions and worth only the paper they are printed on alot of use think we need change. I try to think of us as one of the more peaceful group of thinkers it scares me that some of the older and same age groups are talking of full scale war with the goverment.
I am only hoping that as people we can sit down and resolve our issues instead of having to fight our brothers and sister or a forgein force or possiably both for control of our own country.
But agian these are just the veiws of a few teenagers that observer what is going on around us.
Feel free to share I'm curious to see what you all think about the world as a whole today.
