Hate it.
Would like to claim to be a pacifist but I can't because if the cause is right then I'd support a war.
Fortunately for me, I'm of an age that would not be conscripted to fight, so it's easy for me to be gung-ho about it, safe in the knowledge that others younger than I will be doing the dying.
I am also uncomfortable with people who say " we " are doing the right thing ( in waging war ) when it is not themselves doing the dying.
I won't vote on this subject cause I truly hate the concept of war.
As my old pal Shelley put it:-
" War is the statesman's game, the priest's delight,
the lawyer's jest, the hired assassin's trade "

A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
