Appropriateness

Remembrance Day seems appropriate when it comes to the World Wars. They were the Stanley Cups of war after all. Smashed the Huns' clocks we did.

Remembrance Day seems a little less appropriate when it comes to the Korean War. Not inappropriate: less. Chinese gave us a good bollocking that time around.

Remembrance Day is not associated, so far as I have noticed, with the good old boy bombing we laid on Serbia.

Remembrance Day seems totally inappropriate when it comes to this century's Afghan War. I do not for one minute buy any of the bullshit we have been fed about how right it was for Canada to join that pointless clusterfuck.

"Lest We Forget" . . . .
. . . .our brave CF18 pilots blowing the shit out of the people of Iraq with missiles and bullets as we speak.
