well you can go on pretending that such methods aren't used if it helps your conscience.

the war crimes notion is a bit of hypocrisy really. god knows how many German ladies were raped by the invading Russians who sat in judgement over them at Nuremberg.

was it Sasoon who came up with the phrase 'the order to run mad' - thats what war is. you're kidding yourself if you think its anything else.

its not what i accept.. its what it is, its the quidditas - the nature of war.

deny it - if it helps you make it through the night.
