Heres mine its for those of us who in 70's thought talk of love and freedom would win over those who wanted war we were dreamers this is about those of us who meet in the Sad Cafe
Out in the shiny night, the rain Was softly falling The tracks that ran down the boulevard had All been washed away
Out of the silver light, the past came softly calling And I remember the times we spent Inside the sad cafe
Vietnam: Fought to a draw. We lost 58,000 men. The estimated total of North and South Vietnamese military and civilian deaths ranges somewhere between 2 to 4 million depending on source.
Korea: Fought to a draw. We lost 36,000 men. The estimated total of North and South Korean, and Chinese military and civilian deaths ranges somewhere between 3 to 3.5 million depending on source.
Iraq and Afghanistan: Will be fought to a draw. Who knows what the totals will be, but we will have lost 5 to 10k men, and it's not impossible to imagine that the number of Iraqis and Afghanis killed will be in the millions.
It seems to me that these are not wars, but planned genocides, with both sides in on the gig, and our troops the patsies. We are vying for the title of genocidal champions of the world.
