Just allowed me to see two things that changed me forever

#1 the world from a world view and not an insular (and we are Americans are naturally insular)

#2 to meet people on a daily basis (including my mother in law) that were here durring the WW2 bombings. Where things like the WTC were happening every night. My mother in law for example, had the house next to her bombed and her best friend killed in front of her eyes. Heck..they are STILL finding unexploded bombs..I know where three are with in 1 minutes walk from where I am sitting right now. So, I now know what effect war has even on the winning side. I don't want it to happen to anyone else.
You speak the truth. My mother-in-law lived in Britain during WW2 and she is such a bitter old hag, filled with so much hate, spite and venom, that i dont wish war on anyone.
