As long as I’ve been alive there’s been war. Taken from npr.org: “The U.S. is going to deploy more military trainers to Iraq. President Obama has approved sending 450 more Americans in the effort to take back Anbar province from the self-proclaimed Islamic State. That’s the largely Sunni region which stretches west from Baghdad to the border with Syria, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Iraqi government forces have done poorly against ISIS.”
Despite my respect for the P.O.T.U.S., and while I understand he believes sending American soldiers back to Iraq will expedite unrest in the Middle-East, I disagree with the acts of war. The reality is there will unfortunately ALWAYS be aspects of conflict in the world. Below are a dozen tracks with anti-war sentiments. In an effort for solace, these presentations reflect my thoughts on war, constant unrest, and the consequences.
