VETERANS’ DAY: United states Army First Lieutenant Christopher J. Antal, a Chaplain with the Third Infantry Battalion, stationed at Kandahar Air Base, Afghanistan posts “A Veterans’ Day Confession for America” on the Unitarian Universalist web site, A Quest for Meaning, speaking out against the drone wars:

       We have sanitized killing and condoned extrajudicial assassinations: death by remote control,war made easy without due process, protecting ourselves from the human cost of war.

       We have deceived ourselves, saying, “Americans do not kill civilians, terrorists do,”denying the colossal misery our wars inflict on the innocent.  The national closet bursts with skeletons.
