today is the 100 anniversary of the u.s. entering the war to end all wars, the great war, WW1

WW1 is little remembered now but that was the war that changed the world that was the war that was the beginning of the world we live in today that was the war where tens of thousands of soldiers died in a single battle that was the war that broke the monarchical order and created the states of nations we live in today that was the war that industrialized killing that was the war that so frightened the world governments created THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS so another war like it would not happen again

i just turned on the cable news and the tenor of the talking heads speaking about the u.s. missile strike against syria and they sound like we are going to war

again
