I suppose this has been brought up before.
Now that i think more, i guess it is true .. there is nothing that we do
that is not philosophical.
Our idea of how things is a large percentage of everything we do...
but it seems like a lot of wars have philosophers in the wings ,
whispering the lines.

war is the most obvious way in which young people get killed for
stupid reasons. but on the scale of things, ironically (of course)
it's probably the way in which the least amount of young people die
for stupid reasons.

like taking a shit for example.

no. and thats my final word.

Since the philosophy of war is often treated as a subset of another
branch of philosophy (for example, political philosophy or the
philosophy of law) it would be difficult to define any clear-cut
schools of thought in the same sense that, e.g., Existentialism or
Objectivism can be described as distinct movements. The Stanford
Encyclopedia of Philosophy refers to Carl von Clausewitz is "the only
(so-called) philosopher of war", implying that he is the only (major)
philosophical writer who develops a philosophical system focusing
exclusively on war. However, discernible traditions of thought on war
have developed over time, so that some writers have been able to
distinguish broad categories (if somewhat loosely).

Nothing we do is philosophical. But much of what we do can be seen as
a philosophical act or explained, discussed by philosophy.
Do you really see the acts of G Dubya as taking the sligthest notion
of philosophical consequences? Can his act be exlained by the
philosophy of mind?

Why are you doing this again: this copy&paste alternative to thinking
and contributing?
You began to do this less not lang ago and you were far more
interesting.
Why have you started back again? Have you had an intentionalisectomy?

No, actually I am gathering together information for about 30 new
arguments to introduce. Since Gordge has let up I want to get back
into some philosophical criticism of current issues.

understand what is happening there, sorry dude.

It seems when this usually happens people are needed to 'go off' and
fight. When the war is on your own street, it's another thing altogether.
