Veterans' Day

Any plot, any scheme, any stupid policy and any ill-conceived action is made holy by the deaths of homeland military people it causes.
 
Once the first soldier is dead the nation's leader is soaked in soldier-blood, and then becomes good and great no matter how evil and small that leader might have been before that soldier fell.
 
For an American president to cause the death of one American solider is worth far more to that president than had that president killed a thousand enemies.
 
Thereafter, each American to die cements further the policy that is killing Americans.
