about peace or war
I came over this statement, we end war, or war ends us:
Congressman Kucinich's Response to President Obama's "Just War" Doctrine
Friday, 11 December 2009
(December 10, 2009) Congressman Kucinich will introduce legislation to address bonus payments to employees of banks that received taxpayers' monies for financial bailouts. The Congressman released the following statement:
"Yesterday, our president mused about the inevitability of war, war's instrumentality in the pursuit of peace and just wars. It is important for us to reflect on his words, because once we believe in the inevitability of war, war becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Once we are committed to war's instrumentality in pursuit of peace, we begin the Orwellian journey to the semantic netherworld where War IS Peace, where the momentum of war overwhelms hopes for peace. And once we wrap doctrines perpetuating war in the arms of justice, we can easily legitimate the wholesale slaughter of innocents. The war against Iraq was based on lies. Wars in Afghanistan and Pakistan are based on flawed doctrines of counter-insurgency. War is often not just; sometimes it is just war. And our ability to rethink the terms of our existence, to explore the possibility of peace without war, may well determine whether we end war, or war ends us."
