My buttocks tense up in fury when I hear about our government's plans to "celebrate' the BEGINNING of World War 1.

I don't mind the money spent so much (who could legitimately complain if they were planning to commemorate the END of World War 1?) more the message it sends when we are cutting money elsewhere.

World War 1 is possibly the biggest crime in human civilisation.
...

I would say that WW2 was a even bigger crime.

Both Wars never should be forgotten, but.. celebrating the start... uhm.. no.

I would like to see the news if Germany would announce a calebration of one of the WW Starts...
