RE: The Worst Of the Conflict In Syria May Be Behind Us Now

in #war8 years ago (edited)

the genius of such a simple concept.. minding your own business!:)
and I don't think we should allow a centralization on force that can't even balance a budget.. decide who gets to make voluntary exchanges and travel to where they want to...their incompetence is astounding.

Sort:  

All this conflict is so much based on differences in believes and values. Different stages of evolution or however you want to call it. All we do is force people into a life they aren't ready for. Let them have their civil war, I'm sure we've had plenty while getting to the stage we are at now. Everything that's happening today shows us we aren't doing any good in forcing people to speed up. All we do is put our own people in danger aswell.

the conflict is because of a few psychotic individuals in positions of power. On my own street where I live, I am surrounded by a variety of different people with a myriad of beliefs and value systems.. yet we all get along just fine and no violence is initiated. There is a lot more to it than simply "differences" between people.

I'd say there could be just as much of a difference between me and another native American, as there would be between me and someone of a different race or from a different country.

Everything today shows us that what we have been doing for thousands of years, operating with the illusion that we can trust human beings with positions of authority to rule over their fellow human beings and that it will be ok because we can use "checks and balances" to make sure corruption doesn't come about -- has proved nothing but a farce.

Maybe one day we will embrace real freedom :)
