December 7th, 1941

Just a reminder that today is Pearl Harbor Day - a time to reflect on the atrocities that men willfully inflict on each other under the exonerating moniker of "War."

What's so immensely sad, beyond the loss of thousands of unique lives, is the thought that somewhere people got together and supposedly justified the horrible pain, suffering, and death they knew they were about to cause. And today, if anything, should be a day to remember, and be outraged that this sort of abhorrent justification is still going strong all over the world.
