WAR: GOOD GOD YE'ALL
WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?
MOHAVE RAT just published a
post about the foolishness of war.
I have an Idea that could end
all wars and save warring countries the expense of maintaining an army and
fighting.
When countries cannot reach a
civilized agreement on issues and feel that bloodshed is the only answer - I
prescribe the following:
1.
Take the top
twenty politicians from each country
2.
Strip them buck
naked
3.
Issue each two
single edge razor blades
4.
Lock them in a
large room
5.
Turn off the
lights
6.
Either an agreement
is reached or the last man standing wins.
I believe this would bring
about a lasting peace and we could spend all our money on social programs for
the people instead of a run away military complex.
THIS IS NOT THE GLORY OF WAR |

War, what it is good for. Absolutely Nothing!!
ReplyDeleteI left a comment on Mohave Rat's blog about the poster from the 60s. "War in not healthy for children or other living things."
I vaguely remember a song that had something in it about "We're hairy and horny and ready to fight. We're the cops of the World!!"
You're right, of course.
ReplyDeletethanks! Buzzard. Good Post as always.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly makes you wonder what the hell is wrong with people.
ReplyDeleteas long as three is money to be made on the blood of our soldiers there will be war.
ReplyDeleteI was the lead vocalist for a performance of the Edwin Starr version of War with a big rock band in 1985..at an anti war show in NYC at the Irving Plaza. I think I did it justice.
