It is more fun criticizing
Rizal Philippines July 18, 2014
There is a rash of war: in Africa, at Gaza strip, at Ukraine, Nokor saber rattling, China challenging the territories of the sea at South east Asia. there is a war in Syria and the constant bombing (by suicide bombers) in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq
We hear lot of deaths.
And incidentally, there was movie that featured Mr Robert Mcnamara and the movie is titled "War Fog"
He was the former President of Ford Motors called by the Kennedy brothers to serve as Sec of Defense and later to Kennedy's successor Lyndon B Johnson. He was referred to as the number cruncher called into the military. He always wanted research and stats. And when asked about deaths in Vietnam, he told it was only 25,000 of the reported 58,000.
He said about war: "Rational man do not go to war; but there is limit to rationality" And said that war is a very complex issue like having civilian deaths, and deaths of children (especially if the combatants hide among the civiians)
