F-35s are not the ‘sound of freedom’

Re: the Dec. 8 guest opinion “F- 35 fighter would enhance bases’ local economic impacts.”
Gov. Jan Brewer might hear “the sound of freedom” when military aircraft roar overhead, but pro-peace Arizonans hear instead the agonized screams of innocent victims of war. As for Brewer’s imagined scenario of “jets from an enemy country” attacking the U.S., it is much more likely to become reality if the U.S. continues on its present course of global military madness. Surely we can find peaceful ways to enhance our local economy.
