Nowadays we have professional killers who are contracted by the government to go anywhere and uphold any immoral order they are told to carry out. They know the futility of war, so do their families and yet are prepared to risk their lives for the Queens shilling. I have no sympathy at all for them, when they go to war its because America tells them to, its an industry now where a shower of rich industrialists tells poor men to go and fight on their behalf.
