remembrance day, page-5

best to remember the loss of life so we can be inspired to end war forever

too much "enobling" of sacrifice can lead to the worship of war

sacrifice is a virtue

the slaughter of millions of human beings by policitians is not a virtue

WW1 and WW2 were wars of colonial imperialism & wealth, the result of human ethics such as the slave trade

no side was innocent (however many innocents died)

lest we forget the suffering many soldiers endured by fighting wars the politicians and business elites created
