war

„War does not determine who is right... Only who is left."

- Bertand Russel

I don't think this quote needs a lot of explanation.

Of course one might argue that in most cases the starters of a war are the only responsible ones, and most of the time they are. Another trend throughout history is however that in the past- and I mean way back in history, the victors were writing history. Which means that some of our historical knowledge is very one sided.
