Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
Of gas-shells dropping softly behind.
Gas! GAS! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling
Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time,
But someone still was yelling out and stumbling
And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime.—
Dim through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.
In all my dreams before my helpless sight,
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.
If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,—
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori.

One way to have people forget about the Russians collusion and wire tapping of the President Elect is to start fear mongering about war.

The United States of America is back on top. Being the most powerful and feared country in the world is part of MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

Something has to be done about NK. The last 3 administrations have failed and punted and now they are nearing a point to strike the US mainland. Then add that they export tech and weapons to the likes of Iran who would love to have one of their many terrorst proxies slip one in to the US so no state actor could be blamed and retaliated on.
I'm no war mongerer, but Kim needs to be removed. I'm hoping it's a secret decaptitation mission and not a shot is fired across the DMZ.
I think this is why China has moved troops to the border and the Vinson carrier group is headed there. Just in case it gets a little ugly. But it don't think anyone is planning outright war. Maybe the US shoots down one of their ICBM tests.
Oddly enough, the Trump may have more latitude against NK than he did against Syria. NK is legitimately a national security threat to the US.

I noticed that earlier, today. It's pretty stupid if you ask me.

War is never good
Michael: How bad do you think it's gonna be?
Clemenza: Pretty goddam bad. Probably all the other Families will line up against us. That's all right. These things gotta happen every five years or so, ten years. Helps to get rid of the bad blood. Been ten years since the last one. You know, you gotta stop them at the beginning, like they should have stopped Hitler at Munich, they should never let him get away with that, they was just asking for trouble.
