I want this blog to be a modern Magna Carta, from the 1215 event which gave some rights to individuals.

Images of the American Soldier
This is an image of a GI in Iraq. High tech and fashionable wrap around sun glasses. Well fed, showered and shaved.
This is an image of a GI during World War II. He slept outdoors in the cold and mud. He rarely showered and shaved. He lived a miserable and uncomfortable life, eating cold C-rations.

Is man basically good, or evil? Some say he is good, and some say he is evil. Man will operate with good, or evil. It depends on his environment.
"If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?" -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
