700 or 12, it is a sign we in the West have failed in our duties to our young men. And that failure is not providing our sons with a foundation in faith. Perhaps more than women, men need to believe in a just, moral belief system with an idea that there is punishment for evil behavior and a reward for good behavior - in this world or the next.
They also need to be grounded by commitment to a family and a community that depend on them. Our excuse for a civilization ignores human nature. Men without duty will look for conquest to develop a sense of worth.
