This is a great video, and nicely summarizes what all this wasteful, no-bid, mercenary-laden warfare is bringing us.

Of course, this is not a new way of looking at war and war industries.No one less then that great appeaser, President Dwight D. Eisenhower himself appears to have shared those views:

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children…
This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

April 16, 1953

But then, what could Eisenhower possibly have known of war!

No doubt, Sen. John McCain will set the record straight!!
