Of course we should be calling upon the US government not to reduce the cost of war, but vastly to increase it - by paying reparations.

Perhaps had the discussion taken place in Germany in the thirty’s, the German people might not have been so ready to support Hitler and his wars of aggression throughout Europe. Letting people know the costs of war, rather than just the “glory” or the excuse of fighting “terrorists” is a means of educating and organizing.

Only when the American people rise up against their government war policies, which means mass movements, will there be any change. We did it in the sixties, we should be doing it now.

What would we have said of a discussion in a German university town in 1942 "about the financial, social, and environment costs Germans bear to support and pay for the conduct of endless military interventions in Asia and Africa"?

That it was an exercise in missing the point?
