I am not saying that war is never necessary but i do not think it should be taken lightly and i do not think that we should pretend that the "enemy" (not to mention the civilians that are bound to be caught in the crossfire) is not human.
Is war terrible?

Yes.

Should it be avoided if possible?

Yes.

Am I said that the person trying to kill me is dead?

No.


While you are trying to understand them, they are trying to kill you.
