I don't support one violent coalition over another, but fear spurs violence (greed and jealousy, too, but they manifest differently). I've never experienced the horrors people in conflict-zones endure daily, so I can't imagine hurting anyone, but generally speaking, sane people resort to violence when they're hopeless and scared.

However, every US enemy in the 40+ years of my life has been a freedom-hating, reincarnation of Hitler, evil-doer terrorist whose massacres are unprovoked. But if that's the case, we should consider power and money our kryptonites because the average person isn't a psychopath.

Ugh. What a civilization. Hmm, at least we have dogs! Ha. Positivity is a struggle.
