JediMaster 451 Posted July 13, 2007 The thing that strikes me about the futility of war is the failure to understand the other side's similarities and differences. Everyone always seems to think that by attacking they will make the people pressure their gov'ts into whatever they want...yet history has shown people will band together against an outside attacker. At the same time, if the identical tactics are used AGAINST them, they claim "we won't surrender!" Um, hello? Why do these people think that blowing things up at random here and there is going to bring about some massive worldwide change? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
