But when will our leaders learn - war is not the answer.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We need to learn... how war brutalises and degrades winners and losers alike and what happens to us when, having heedlessly waged war for no good reason, we are encouraged to inflate and demonise our enemies in order to justify that war's indefinite continuance.
War is a beastly business, it is true, but one proof we are human is our ability to learn, even from it, how better to exist.
When you get billions in aid and your weapons resupplied and your ammunition stock resupplied, you don't learn the lesson that war is bad and nobody wins.
Our modern states are preparing for war without even knowing the future enemy.
History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.
Sometime they'll give a war and nobody will come.
I don't think we should ever be at war. That's kind of naive, I suppose.
No war is over until the enemy says it's over.
This enemy of peace in the world today is unlike any we have seen in the past, and our military is learning from, and building on, previous successes while carrying peace and freedom into the future.
No war is inevitable until it breaks out.
