🔥 'War doesn’t just destroy cities—it devours our humanity.' That’s the stark warning from veteran journalist Chris Hedges, whose two decades on the frontlines of global conflicts have reshaped how we understand violence.
From covering civil wars in 1980s Central America to the Gulf War’s chaos, Hedges has seen firsthand how war \"twists societies and poisons futures.\" His new mission? Exposing the U.S. war industry’s \"toxic grip on global politics\"—a system he calls more dangerous than any single battle.
📉 The stats are brutal: • 58% of post-9/11 U.S. veterans struggle with mental health • $1.8 trillion—what America spent on war since 2001 But Hedges argues the real damage is invisible: \"We’re raising generations who see conflict as normal. That’s how civilizations collapse.\"
🧭 For young activists and future leaders, his message cuts deep: \"Your voice matters more than any missile.\" As proxy wars multiply from Ukraine to Gaza, Hedges’ truth-telling offers a compass in our chaotic world 🌪️.
