Jim Krause 9/11: Revenge as a weapon (81* d) RE: Revenge as a weapon 11 Sep 02


Div,
Sad to say, but that's what war is, that's what war does. Realizing this, all the post mortem hand wringing has always mystified me. One would think that when a country such as ours relies upon warfare as a means of statecraft and diplomacy that other people, civilians, women, and children will die.

The alternative is to abandon warfare as a means of statecraft and diplomacy. But I don't suppose anyone would have the nerve to propose that as a serious measure, outside of a few idealistic Quakers and Mennonites. Everybody knows that war is good business, right??????
Jim
