Stupid, stupid war.
The start of the decline of Western Civilization.
War is so wasteful and evil.
Just awful. Awful.
The governments were like a room full of big, drunk, stupid, aggressive, hair-trigger guys fumbling around in a room until two of them bump shoulders and start getting pissed at each other and everyone else joins in.
It nearly brings tears to the eyes, the waste. The needless waste. In human life.
” stupid, stupid war “
The men of both sides in that war didn’t believe in it.
Yeah. Proved Jefferson right on the Washington Doctrine of Unstable Alliances.
My Great Grandfather would agree with you.
All wars are stupid and sad.
But some are necessary. Mostly not.
