MEMORIAL DAY ......

Every country in our modern world has some similar day honoring its dead soldiers in various wars . For thousands of years , and in all countries in every continent , people of all walks of life , and especially the youths were systematically brain washed , and infused with ideas and slogans asking them to join their armies and their wars , always for the pure defense of the mother country .

Soldiers were always institutionalized and brainwashed into thinking that they are in for a noble cause , saving their territories , its peoples and their freedoms against ferocious and barbaric enemies , who always act in exactly the same way with their own . invariably beneficiaries of these wars make us all believe and feel that wars are always acceptable , even honorable and glamorous .

A quick look at the Syrian army massacring its own people by the hundreds of thousands in the most horrendous ways , and still enjoying a somewhat honorable and glamorous label , the same exactly would apply to their close neighbors , Israel , whereby all their soldiers , drafted or professionals , are constantly brainwashed to think and visualize all Palestinians , young and old , as terrorists and brutal killers .Thus proudly deserving the name and label of defenders of the country and its Jewish people , totally ignoring and forgetting the occupation side of it .

The Dalai Lama recently said ;" No matter how malevolent or evil are the many murderous dictators who can currently oppress their nations and peoples , and cause international acute problems , it is obvious that they cannot harm others or destroy countless human lives if they don't have a military organization accepted and condoned by society." These vast powerful organizations exist solely to kill human beings , added the Dalai Lama , and under various headings we've always made them legal , acceptable even glamorous .

Certain dictatorial regimes are the very example of these words , like the Syrian Assad dynasty , who for long decades maintained a strong and brutal army that is still today the backbone of the regime , infused largely by loyal elements of the sectarian Syrian mosaic . Israel is becoming a world leader in militarizing its youths , and making the war organization an essential corner stone of their economy and society .

If we calculate what the top few war machines in the world , like the U.S , Russia , Israel and Saudi Arabia , spend yearly on equipment , maintaining and training their armies , one can not imagine it wouldn't all lead to a world without wars , it defies common sense . Strictly by adding what we proudly call our defense needs , humanity could completely alleviate poverty , hunger , illiteracy and sickness . The whole serving mostly huge military organizations and institutions , military industries from all Western countries , Israel and Russia , are constantly behind backing the fiercest war propagandist always backed by big banks and big interests and money .
