Email us: [email protected] for Life Series: This is a four-part series that looks at the value of life through the various societal lenses of faith and politics. It's no secret that the United States is considered a global superpower. Part of the reason we have this designation probably has to do with our fascination, some say obsession, with the military–industrial complex. But are there situations where war is inevitable? How about assassinations? America spends roughly $700 billion on defense, yet also spends only a fraction of that on diplomacy. On this last installment of our March for Life series, we speak with recently Retired Green Beret Master Sergeant, and CEO of Quiet Pro Tactical, Juan Mata. MSG Mata gives us some unique insight into the decision making process involved in declaring war and how to take a life. We then discuss how politics plays a huge role in where our troops go and how voters can help if they want to see us involved in less conflict around the world.
