Where have all the talented singers gone?

[AntiquatedPoet]

Who'd ever think a song about flowers would be so deep and beautiful?

I never gave a thought about how my dad dealt with, or had, PTSD at all. How many came back from early wars with this? How did they deal with it? Dad rarely spoke about war. Only picture in my mind I have of him is standing on an airfield waiting for friends who were never coming back. Any way, enough of the sadness, Bollocks to the politicians, we survive in spite of them, as my mum used to say.

boy that's enough to really make you bitter for life..same in Australia really..lots of homeless vets and many of course have PTSD or other problems that go untreated...I mean I see the BS politicians swanning around BRAGGING about how much it costs the people to pay for them and there are veterans on the street? It is sick really is

[Alan Pat]

Yep, that's the Brits. for you. Give homes to foreigners, forget your own. After the 2nd. World War my parents had no home of their own, I was born '46. We were living in one room, then a baby brother in '49 came along. The family we were living with had 4 sons of their own. They were threatened with eviction if they didn't kick us out onto the street. They didn't!! We finally got a local authority 3 bed house in '51. That is why my dad felt the way he did.

I know what you're saying...Apparently there are HUGE HUGE contracts being signed by American companies to rebuild what they bombed in Iraq...could be a hint there eh? I just hate the waste of life. You know we just were in England for six months and i was so surprised to see a charity for HOMELESS veterans. I mean what??? Gave them all our winter clothes. Least we could do.. and god bless to you brother. and thank you again..good to meet nice people!!!

[Alan Pat]

Amen to that. Why I don't believe we should be in Iraq, Afghanistan. Top Soldier has said 'we' need to talk to the Taliban. So 'we' will talk & nothing really will change. Soldiers died to get women =rights & schooling. Waste of their lives & our money, BUT, watch out for Iran. Again, fundamentalists, dangerous people!

Good luck & God bless.

[Paul Donohoe]

Wel I am sorry we got off on the wrong foot..we both sound like decent and reasonable people! I am sorry if I gave the impression that I was ever against those who fight. A long time ago I stopped involvement with all "anti war" organisations for that reason. Yes, and sadly there will probably always be a "Hitler" the trick is to not take our leaders' word that they ARE a Hitler, if you know what I mean.

[Alan Pat]

Sorry to hear about your dad & that I glossed over that fact. My dad said he would never go to war again, give him a gun & he would stand on his doorstep. His idea was to let those leaders that wanted war to fight it out themselves in a field, then we would deal with the winner. Greed & idealism = war, but as Bob Dylan stated, without the 'Universal Soldier', me included, there would be no war.

Unfortunately 'HE' is out there. We both detest what is sometimes a necessity, Hitler had to go!
