Anti War #4

Americans View On War

    Americas eagerness for war can be seen as unflattering and war is typically glorified for patriotic purposes. Also most Americans hold a high regard for active military because of there willingness to put there life on the line for a career. The military is given a large portion of money to ensure protection and maintaining relationships with other countries. The anti war position is prevalent in both political parties. If there is one singular thing that the right and left agree on is american imperialism and militarism. Politicians are learned to be amoral and not tend to not pay attention to the consequences of violence. Money speaks louder to the government versus lives.

     Not only are politicians heavily influenced by large corporations but those corporations influence expansion of foreign operations. The US population in general is ignorant when it comes to situations in other countries, we are easily convinced that the given military actions are some how noble or the best option. American culture is oriented toward action and oppose the neutral side of a situation. In todays society not much has changed since the expansion of america and still are wanting to further satisfy our need to grow as a nation . Americans are aggressive in nature, and when it comes to other countries hurting from our own actions, we dont care until the war is in our backyard.
