From: Spreading Comfort and Succor to the Poor of the World (satire)
I bring this up as our brave troops are engaged in some constructive urban renewal in Sadr City, a blighted and unproductive slum in Baghdad. Rather than risk the lives of our brave boys by storming militant strongholds, the Pentagon finds in more cost effective to call in airstrikes and destroy the buildings all together.
A military spokesman contrasted our humanity with the enemy's inhumanity when he pointed out that, "The sole burden of responsibility lies on the shoulders of the militants who care nothing for the Iraqi people" because they insist on defending their homes that are located in the crowed slum, thus making it necessary for the U.S. military to level their homes in order to pacify the area. The spokesman then went on to ask, "What does that say about the enemy? He is heartless and evil."
Unfortunately, the author of the above article fails to understand the rationale behind our assault on Sadr City when, in speaking of our troops, he says, "Now, they are headed for nowhere, for the heart of a slum city which they cannot hold in a guerrilla war where the taking of territory and the occupying of neighborhoods is essentially beside the point. They are headed for oblivion, while trying to win the hearts and minds by shooting missiles into homes and enclosing people in giant walls which break families and communities apart, while destroying livelihoods."
What this writer fails to understand is that you are a thinker who thinks the big thoughts. And one big thought you've thought is the dilemma that is now facing humanity: the world population is growing as its resources are shrinking. There is no longer enough to go around. Humanity is afloat in an overcrowded lifeboat. Sacrifice is called for.
There is but one solution to this dilemma, and that is to reduce world poverty by euthanizing it.
