Very smart question, Maxwell.

I believe in first trying "the American Democratic Way," meaning that if someone is lobbying for things you don't like then you have to lobbying bigger and better than them.

The problem here is that Zionism has a extremely dedicated and effective lobbying group and most other non-Zionist Americans don't care that much.

But those who do care that much, maybe Muslim-Americans, would have to get super active.

In a broader overview there the first serious thing we could do is require Congress to declare wars, i.e. declare war in accord with our own laws for doing so, the Constitution.

Right now, although we're in Iraq, Afghanistan and 100 other nations, we're not in any declared war...it's all done behind the scenes or in some deliberately misleading way...voting for some vague Supplemental Appropriation Bill 08 or something like that, or even deal, SOFA's, that the military seems to get into all by itself.

Properly declaring war would mandate proper focus and proper discussion of the issue.

But, this shows how bad, how corrupt it has all become. Evil will always seek to work hidden, in the darkness; while posing as good.

Yet, asking that the Constitution be obeyed is the most basic and fundamental demand. Supporting the Constitution is the very oath of national office.

Getting more folks to realize this helps.

Electing better leaders in every election also helps.

Once war is properly declared I also think -- perhaps surprisingly? -- that there should be a draft and not just a draft of citizens but also a draft of corporations - this will help eliminate the war profiteering motive and the participation of regular citizens will "put some skin in the game" i.e. make the war real throughout the nation...so we don't go to war just for a joke or just based on lies or just because general want something to do or corporations see a chance of big profit.

Yup, ever since we starting fighting without declaration of wars it's gone downhill
