Like that Star Trek episode ? where a certain number of people from each side agree to die, to avoid property damage, the screaming and biting, metal teeth, hurting, pain?
“Fascinating.” Spoock
That was “Taste of Armageddon.” One of my favorite episodes.
“ Death, destruction, disease, horror… that’s what war is all about. That’s what makes it a thing to be avoided.” — Capt. James T. Kirk
