In times long past men would stand
Shoulder to shoulder with their fellow man,
And join together for a common cause
To fight the battles to win the wars,

But long such past are these days
When brethren united against evils ways,
When ideals were held close to heart
When soldiers fought together and never apart,

But in this age we stand apart now governed
By politics instead of our hearts,
No lofty ideals of justice for all
Just deals with companies for the spoils of war.

True lines.:nod:
I would debate against the first stanza:

In times long past men would stand
Shoulder to shoulder with their fellow man,
And join together for a common cause
To fight the battles to win the wars


Because arguably, for wars to exist there must've been man fighting in self-interest in the first place?
We've been there already, I know I know:P Just my thoughts=)

thanx for the comment, also i'm starting to see a rather cyclical nature to this arguement so i'm going to recommend that we agree on a stalemate and begin a new debate

also your thoughts are also welcome
