"First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me."
~ Martin Niemoller

If there are any readers out there who join this Reuters writer in wailing and gnashing of teeth over the ideal that "..there should not be this terrible waste in war...", please remember this: War is the Health of the State.
Every "wasted" penny is accounted for. By somebody. S/he who gains from warring and violence.
It's all going as planned. Read this.

I think this article highlights the degree of incompetence and/or corruption perpetrated by the part of the government supposedly manned by heroes. Bureaucracy gives us incompetence, but I agree with you that the far worse part are the angels of death that profit from the blood money.
