Roark was Right
I was looking around and saw that I had a share. Jilisa had sent me a war documentary.
This was my response:

"Proof that America as a whole is under a messiah complex.

It grows from everyday life to the higher ranks of the military. None of this would be possible if it weren't for either the weak will of the American people, the gullablity, or maybe just the all around ignorance exulted by this country.
We... never... (and I've said this since I was in 5th grade) never actually have to deal with someone else's problems. If it happens, that means you have taken someone else's life into your own hands. Which is just plain wrong anyways you slice it."

Now. Think about this for just a moment. When you get into someone else's business, why do you do it?

If you do it to help, what have you done? It's crazy because in all of the confusion that revolves around the situation, the tragic flaw is that it isn't a situation that is your own.

I come at a crossroads when I give advice because I'm always looking from what I would do in the given situation. Then again, that is the only true way I can see it, all other ways are just speculation at best.

But what about those times when someone does follow your lead for once. I remember when I used to tell Reeshawna something to try to help her through a problem. And then in the end, seeing that I was horribly wrong. Those moments twist my guts and eat away at my soul because I feel it was my fault that it happened. I steered someone wrong.
But how could it have been avoided?

Simple. I didn't have to get involved. It isn't my place to be involved. And I damn sure shouldn't have the right to be involved.

Now it gets deep.

Look at the Iraq War. Pointless right?
Looking back at the documentary made me see something I knew before...
WE ALL WANTED THIS! We wanted Saddam. We need Osama. But... why... What happened...
Then I thought of something disturbing...
Wars previous directly lead to this war.
Russia...
See.. Iraq needed support in 1984... and guess who gave it to them. Us... the US
Did we have to do that? No...
Did we have to drop bombs on Hiroshima? No...
There are a lot of conflicts outside of the US. Everyday there is a war somewhere. Yet. We pick conflicts to be involved in... to concentrate on... to feed...

Do we have to though?
