Some of my best friends have been Marines, and some of the best anti-war voices have come from Marines, e.g. Smedley Butler and David M. Shoup. I wish there were more like them. I put up a homeless Marine vet for awhile, until he got busted DWI and had to move back to town. He told how his squad leader in Vietnam told him one night "I'm going to show you what this war is really all about." He took him out-of-bounds and over a ridge, overlooking a beach that was all lit up, with freighters off-loading supplies to the Vietcong. Corporations were profiting from both sides of that war and wanted it to go on indefinitely. S'pretty much what's still going on. We created Al Qaeda, then sent troops to die fighting them, then armed them to attack Libya and Syria. Treason is not too strong a word.
