The War Prayer

For those of you who don't visit the Washington Monthy blog The Political Animal. Let me pass along their powerful Memorial Day anti-war message from 100 years ago by Mark Twain: The War Prayer.

Because of the horrors we ask them to bear, we must always honor those we send to fight our wars. Because of the horrors we ask them to commit, we must only send them to fight when they are truly needed.

Support the troops. Pray for Peace. Bring Them Home.
