"War Weary". That's Arguably Insulting. What about this? It will make you think.

“War Weary”…. That’s arguably insulting. On BBC news I have heard comments about both the US and the UK not wanting to intervene in Syria because their countries were ”war weary”. There were probably similar comments in other countries which had troops in Afghanistan or previously in Iraq.

Six days ago I got a toothache, and it got worse and worse over 3 days. On the fourth day I went to a dentist first thing in the morning, and had the tooth extracted. It was a difficult extraction, and the dentist had to cut my gums and then stitch them back together. He had given me novocaine and I felt no pain. He later gave me a prescription for painkillers and antibiotics. I went home, knowing I had extra strength Tylonol and I planned to try that before buying the prescrption painkillers.

Well the novocaine wore off rapidly, and Tylonol just wasn’t doing it. As I was walking to the drugstore, with the pain now quite intense, I suddently thought about video images I had seen from Syria, Afghanistan and other countries, of civilians with a stump of a leg or a blown off arm wrapped in rags, and no medical treatment and no painkillers. Their pain would be much greater than mine, with no relief in sight.

I bought the painkillers and antibiotics with ease, and I had mild discomfort, but no real pain, within a few minutes.

I felt tired, so I had a nap on my couch. Outside, there was no gunfire and no bombs exploding. Later I fixed a big pot of ”soft soup” after easily procuring all of the ingredients.

If I related my story in countries with war zones, it might be thought of as some kind of insulting, sick attempt at humour. What do you think? Are you really ”war weary” or incredibly lucky to be living where you are?
