Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
- President Dwight D. Eisenhower

Slobodan Milosevic

He died in a warm bed.

Thousands were raped, murdered and tortured under his rule. He spent the last four years of his life in a "cell" with exercise equipment, television, and comfortable chairs. There is no justice in this world. At least Hitler had the decency to commit suicide.

Discordant thought; we've figured out that war is a bad idea, and yet we make war any ways.
