MONDAY MUSINGS

If it's acceptable for 160,000 soldiers to die in a war where no oil is involved, how many American soldiers' deaths are acceptable in the Middle East, where oil is involved. Once 160,000 is tolerated in one war, surely, it will be accepted and tolerated again, until that number is exceeded. Once a value is put on a life then it can be bought and sold.
Once mans' life is valued more than another then the highest bidder wins.
I never put a value on my life therefore there was no question of selling out. My life is not worth more or less than another mans' therefore it was easy to donate it in service to the upliftment of humanity.
