      A poignant reminder—one people should heed—of how little we discuss our obligations to the people in countries we went to war with — the victims there weren’t just adult soldiers. Millions of kids grew up under bombs. If it’s hard for adult volunteer soldiers, imagine children.https://twitter.com/votevets/status/1014250823352713216 …

      We act like the Iraq War never happened; Afghanistan doesn’t exist. Yet the way that war was conducted paved the way for a big chunk of the problems roiling the world. Practically no accountability. And then puzzled “how did we get here” questions. History doesn’t start in 2016.

          The CCEA History GCSE has changed, and when I teach the Afghanistan invasion and the Iraq war, besides telling astonished kids that I marched against these, I link them directly to current problems.

          Not to mention covert US activity in Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, which has viscerally transformed the region’s sociopolitical landscape for the worst.

          have you seen Charlie Wilson's War? I watched it on a plane, put my head on the tray table and wept at the last scene (no money for schools)

          I'm at a loss for words. The dogs and vets are here in America where the July 4th fireworks were exploded. Those responsible for the Afraq explosions are likely not reading this.
