NSFW: What happens when we go to war
Here are images from just two atrocities committed by the American armed forces. Remember them whenever you hear anybody speak highly of any war or of the idea of going to war.

Rare? Whatever heinous crime is being committed, war can only exasperate the problem, for war involves even more people. Hitler could've killed a few million people and been done with it, but, instead, 60,000,000 people died and countless millions more were injured. Sure, Hitler's actions weren't the only causes of WWII, but war should always be avoided. 1

And this will happen yet again in Iran if we elect these republican idiots. More dead civilians. More dead soldiers. Sickening… Pascifism is a policy that ought be adopted by all nations. And most nations have. Sadly, all you need is one nation like the United States or Israel to screw the whole world over. No one can say with certainty the result of actions that have yet to happen, but let's look at Obama's record. Ron Paul and Obama are the ONLY candidates who were opposed to the Iraq War. Obama ended that war (which was based on lies and propaganda). He has now released plans to end the war in afghanistan. He received the nobel peace prize (I realize this is irrelevant, but I thought I throw it in there). Being a liberal, he won't start another war if we wants to get reelected. Obviously he will threaten action as he needs the independents to vote, as well, but I value actions more than words. What evidence do you have to point to the contrary? Ron Paul is the only one with both a history of consistency in government non-involvement, as well as being an outspoken advocate towards the ending of all foreign wars. You forgot Obama. But I suppose acknowledging that would be contrary to your world view. 1
