oh..
that's interesting, he wasn't justifying war. There were a lot of good points in there...I notice that too, that sort of 'narcotic' effect of war. I can feel it too, there's a certain excitement. That's what bothers me about many pro-war arguments... they seem like a thin veil over a burning desire to blow shit up. You have to fight the urge to destroy, or at least channel it in a constructive way.
I was talking about that with friend that was in the Army in Bosnia. He said a bunch of guys in his unit were all excited when there were being deployed... but he said none of those dumb-asses were too happy when they got out there and could hear the bombs dropping.
