One of my favorite stories. And how sad that it didn’t hold.

WWI has been called the mutual slaughter of Christendom. All started because of the death of a man that many found to be such a boar that they didn’t go to his funeral. Killed by a bunch of fools who by their actions destroyed what they were fighting for.

Yeah, World War I I think was the war that made the world what it is today. You got World War II from it, Communism, Fascism, Islamofascism and so on. I always thought that Time's Man or the Century should have been Gavilro Princip, not Albert Einstein. If you put both wars together, give or take, 100 million people died and that is not counting between the wars and the wars like Korea, Vietnam and so on.
