I hate those men who would send into war youth to fight and die for them; the pride and cowardice of those old men, making their wars that boys must die.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm fed up to the ears with old men dreaming up wars for young men to die in.
Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.
I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
No one hates war like a soldier hates war.
Do you know what a soldier is, young man? He's the chap who makes it possible for civilised folk to despise war.
I hate war. Absolutely, I hate war.
I hate war for its consequences, for the lies it lives on and propagates, for the undying hatreds it arouses.
Those who have experienced the most, have suffered so much that they have ceased to hate. Hate is more for those with a slightly guilty conscience, and who by chewing on old hate in times of peace wish to demonstrate how great they were during the war.
Sending our youth to war is wrong.
When we think of war, the tendency is to picture young soldiers only in their military roles. To a large extent this dehumanizes the soldiers and makes it easier for society to commit them to combat.
