I’ve been reading Josna’s essays all month for A2Z 2026. This one talks about Veterans speaking out and organizing protests. Just a few days ago a group of them were arrested for peacefully protesting.

657. Veterans

    Thanks for the link. It’s true, I don’t know one veteran who ever glorified war. (K)

      It’s the generals and the military industrial complex and those with stock in them that do. If their children were sent into armed conflict as a condition of their contracts, I think we’d see a lot less war.

        Yes, as I’ve said before, I’m waiting for Baron to enlist.
