Politicians and Pentagon have committed country to wars around the world

On October 24, 2013
Eugene Hruby

To the editor,

Regarding your editorial, “Haven’t we learned? Pursue negotiations before taking military action in Syria” (September 5 issue, Catholic Herald), yes, the people have learned a long time ago, but the politicians have sold out to the corporations and will not listen as long as there is money to be made. It also keeps the Pentagon employed.

No, it will not change. The Pentagon has committed this country to external wars by messing into every country’s business. They are the biggest war-maker in the world.

I don’t know if God will change it by prayer or not. I don’t know the answer.

Eugene Hruby, Dane
