He sounds very level headed. True conservatives have that view on war as well. Terrible, but sometimes needed and only as a last resort.
Very interesting the nurse made that comment.
Yeah, and I guess his views are a more nuanced that what I said in my other post. When he was born, the nurse looked at him and said "he is an old soul" and he has proven time and again to be a very deep, very well grounded individual and has always been very wise way beyond his years. I think the young 24 year old part of him is very anti-war as I described, but I think part of him also recognizes that war is a necessary evil that *should* try to be avoided at all costs, and while is not a fan of the military, he ultimately recognizes they have a place and a purpose in our world. It's a very complex issue with him.
Also, he is working on parts that go on an airplane, and maybe that gives him enough distance from the topic. If he was asked to make actual bombs, machine guns, or bullets, that would probably cross whatever line is in his mind.
