Running It Up The Flagpole



It’s hard to care, past a certain point.

Taken individually, each person lost is a tragedy, but like that old saying goes, a million is a statistic.

I sometimes try to work out at what point I stopped caring. When I was a kid, when I would always play solider and shoot all the bad guys? When I was through basic training? When I got promoted to officer? When the war began?

But victory is more important than a few deaths here and there. We cannot let the enemy any further into our territory.

Nuke their lands.

And ours too.
