Description

Name of a song in the late 1900's . Make it sound old now. Anyway war in this world is good to keep us free. or there going to be people saying what to worship and how. You would have to bow down too some one too. or die if you do not do what they tell you. The war between the states a lot people say it was over slaves but it was over a lot of issues. Slaves was one, and work too and money. About states rights and many things I do not fully understand. If you google salves one would see there was about the same number or more white slaves than blacks ; depent where and what century here in USA. Of course there was people made slaves all thought out the centurys around the world; even today there slaves in this world but people close their eyes to it. That why there war in this world to keep free or get free or to take over people lives. Got a lot to say but I not going to. Anyway who will listen to one that do not know all the facts I like this image for it shows diff times in history and diff ways of fighting. I not for war but if it keep some one from telling me I can not eat red meat but just fruits and greens to me that may be fighting words. This is just a small point of the food but it comeing and I hear some is trying to do this now. War is good to keep free. or we loss our freedom and will die anyway. Look at WW2 6,000,000 people die in EU along.. Stalin killed 20,000,000 to keep in power. you can put one the list your own wars. Spain civil war and all the other countries around the world one can read about on the net and history books. The book will just touch on the whole picture and the web will get more details and both books and web will lies too so watch out for that.

yes it is to stay free or someone to keep in power....One will note all the wars around the world now as the super powers is no longer in power. I think there more wars now than before. I could be wrong.

War is the only way that politicians found, when no longer possible to negotiate! In this case, if the politicians want to be right in principle ... they will make war. When I was young after the Second World War, it was said that only military solutions did not like war ... but yes, want to impose on others ... it is already at war. As "globalization" is a gloomy economic war and millions of people starving, killed or burned ... They are not made for me in politics.

Simplistic but my two cents...Wars will be fought. The sane nation picks them very carefully and wisely. We have seen what in my mind are wars that had to happen. We are free today because of them. Tragically and sadly, we have also seen wars and police actions for criminal profiteer gain. They to are endorsed and sold to us wrapped neatly in a flag and a bow. Know well what we are fighting for because young will die! Great image and great statement, regardless of which side you line up with.

Cool photograph and historical commentary, Jock. Nothing personal my English friends, but if it wasn't for war, we'd still be a British colony here in North America.

War is one of two things...religion or power and often it is both. Many things happen because of war...very rarely do those things contain religion or power. Very strange. This is a wonderful photo. Gives pause for thought.
