Once again, America has blundered into an un-winnable war. It is beyond my understanding why we, as Americans, continue to behave in this aggressive manner towards all things that don’t suit us at any given moment.
This latest battle in California is just one example of our persistence in imposing our will and our empire on all things of the earth. It makes me ashamed to be an American.
As pointed out by IMAO we have gone into a war with nature, in this case fires, in California without giving a single thought to an exit strategy. How will we get out of this? What will we define as ‘victory’? We can’t win it. We have no choice but to turn tail and leave.
To our great shame, there has been MASSIVE water torture conducted on the fire which has only angered it more.
If we are to learn to live as one with the rest of the world we need to learn to embrace fire and love it to start healing the wounds of our past aggression towards it.
Time to come up with an exit strategy! Time to leave! Let the fire live as it wishes to live, its none of our business.

Oh, I am breaking up over this post. I guess this is supposed to be some sort of clever little put down of everyone who opposed the in Iraq? You guys always confuse an optional war based on dishonest evidence with things that are unavoidable. But your simplistic minds can’t make the difference due to your diet of Limbaugh, Fox and right wing fascist keyboard blog warriors.

You guys? Who are ‘you guys’? Are you lumping an entire group of people into one stereotype? That’s pretty small minded isn’t it?
Your claims that I don’t think for myself are inaccurate, but if that makes it easier for you to hold onto your fantasies than whatever floats your boat. Don’t worry, my son and others like him will stand guard to keep the wolves at bay so you can sleep peacefully at night.
As usual - the fascist left refuses to allow opinions that differ from their own.
