War monger

[Note to ed: this is a re-submission of a letter submitted on March 25, 2018. The placing of John Bolton in a position of influence is something that should send shivers up the back of all peace loving citizens.]
A recent headline on the Opinion page of this newspaper announced that Pres.Trump finally had his war cabinet. War. Whether a trade war or a real shooting war aimed at “regime change”, is something to be avoided like the plague. In a real war, there are no winners, only losers. Too many human beings lose their lives. Too many others lose their livelihoods, their occupations, their way to earn a living. Sovereign treasuries get emptied. Arms merchants get rich while misery gets spread around with plenty for everyone. There should be one, universal, goal and that mission should be to relegate the notion of a shooting war, not only to “last resort” status but to that of NO WAY NO HOW! Congress should make that clear to Mr. Bolton.
