Others, like Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, an heir to the "Fire-eater" secessionists of his state who lit the fuse of America's Civil War, avidly campaign for war: the bigger, the better.
North Korea's rule and Russia's aggression obviously violate humanitarian norms, but most members of the Washington War Party, irrespective of their public protestations, care little about the lives of others, at least if they are Africans, Arabs, and Asians.
As for Vietnam, would Foster have had Washington remain there forever as well? Of course, members of the War Party insist that if only Americans remain steadfast, they can outlast the barbarian hordes.
The War Party imagines that every American action is intensely scrutinized and no foreign power acts on its own initiative for its own reasons.
Americans must fund an endless proxy war against Russia.
Young Americans' lives should not be sacrificed to pay for the War Party's misdeeds.
The best way to honor the nation's war dead would be to stop sacrificing so many Americans' lives for so little purpose.
