Spinning Wheels

If ever proof was needed that the Iraq fighting is not diminishing the Al Queda terrorist chain, this weeks revelations in the press dispelled that myth.

And why am I not surprised?

Maybe not having the blind belief that the answer to everything is primacy of military power instead of smarts has something to do with it.

In the foolhardiness of the continued Iraq operations, whatever they might be labeled at this point, it is evident to all who look, that there are alternative ways to defeat terrorism.

Yet in the jaws of the military/industrial/corporate/political complex, the blood continues to pour, serious body and brain injuries continue to maim the citizenry as well as the military.Refugee numbers climb, and the world is numb.

Spinning our military wheels over the past five years has them down to the rims, when will the right approaches be learned and applied -----well apparently not in this administration's term of office.

So unbearably sad.
