: We are, after all, animals, and many of our
: "natural" reactions to the world
: about us are
: more based on the claw and fang than
: "civilization."
: It is considered "sane" to go off
: to war and to kill as many of the enemy as
: possible, and the "best" brains of
: society are ever inventing newer
: technologies of death. This is not an
: abberation. It is human, all too human.
There cannot be war without also there being an expectation of exclusive gain by the architects of war.
Pity the soldier who thinks he fights for virtuous reasons. Though many need no reason at all.
