Dulce et Decorum Est
Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.
Gas! Gas! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling,
Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time;
But someone still was yelling out and stumbling
And flound'ring like a man in fire or lime...
Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.
In all my dreams, before my helpless sight,
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.
If in some smothering dreams you too could pace
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,—
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori.
— Wilfred Owen

No more war.
Far too many have died already from Netanyahu’s lies and bloodthirst.
He lied to our government about WMDs to get us into Iraq. He now demands that we bow our heads and waste American lives and resources for another bullshit war.
That lunatic has no power over us. Our money, our weapons, and our blood should never be sacrificed to satisfy his genocidal lust ever again.
Just wanted to add:
Like many other Americans, I knew people who died in our last round of Middle-eastern wars. Not just on the battlefield, but those who killed themselves shortly after returning home. I know many more (friends, family, former professors) who are still living but have struggled immensely with their mental health. I also had family members who met similar fates in Korea and Vietnam.
War is evil. It’s used to feed the egos of madmen and line the pockets of defense contractors. We must make a stand.
