WhatInTheWorld #26: War, what is it good for?

“There’s only thing worse than soldiers dying in vain, and that’s more soldiers dying in vain”. While the invasion is Israel by Hamas and other militants was celebrated as an act of resistance, no people of good conscience can support the wanton destruction and lack of regard for civilian life shown by Hamas. As is typical of such violence, many of their victims have been foreigners who are no party to the conflict. The immediate response by Israel has been similarly callous air strikes, levelling buildings and killing hundreds. There are no winners in war, only dead humans and scarred survivors.
