War

Despite waging all-out war, Ukrainian military retreats from airport.

Why Americans have become uncritical of a seemingly incompetent military.

The consequences of war.
"There’s one big problem with that mindset, however. The truth is that the troops, through what they’re doing over there, are indirectly destroying our country, our rights and freedoms, our safety and security, and our economic well-being." 
It's more accurate to blame our rulers than the troops though they share some responsibility.

US Navy fires chief of Gitmo for corruption.

US-backed Yemeni president resigns in not-a-coup.US war in Yemen: fail.

The Navy plans to trap enlisted women below seas in submarines for months at a time. I fear for them.

Washington's insidious love of war. This language is all wrong. Washington doesn't love war because collectives can't love. Groups don't love war because groups can't love. A group of individuals can profit from war, and they can dominate political power to incite more war in order to increase those profits.

Navy ship runs aground off Okinawa.
