Hegemonic philosophy 101: what is a soldier?

johnsmiff letter on Zerohedge:

November 2011

"Military men are just dumb stupid animals
to be used as pawns in foreign policy"
Henry Kissinger, as quoted in "The Final Days"
by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in chapter 14.
Page 194 in the paperback version (1995)
That quote just about sums up the regard politicians
have for the veterans and the armed forces in general.
