My dad risked his life fighting fascism in the Pacific during WWII so I could have a better life.
I proudly served the country I love.
Now, I worry for my children and grandchildren because the country I have known is being destroyed from within.

If Trump believes these strikes are somehow justifiable, he needs to make his case to Congress and ask for authorization. That's not what's happening.

The average person lived to be about 50-60 hundreds of years ago. The reason everyone fixates on the average human lifespan being 30 or 40 is because of the infant mortality rate. Half the kids didn't make it past 5; it dragged the lifespan average THAT far down.
