Why are you fixated on the view that wars are designed to achieve national goals? That is certainly possible, but definitely not necessary. All the modern wars of the United States are fomented and sustained by very private interests for personal profit -- the war contractors, war profiteers, etc. They have no interest in helping their country -- they just want to feather their own nests. The country can go down in flames and hellfire, as long as they are all right, Jack !
Numan I continue to admire the perpicacity of your postings
That said, I was trying to stick to a single thread of discussion about the generalized motivation for war accross all countries
When that discussion is fully elucidated, I am sure there will be great enthusiam to move on to your dead on critiques of the american politcal system
Thx Ardy
