War Is Hell--Let Us Never Forget. It

December 26, 2023

 This from Tolstoy's "War and Peace"



“War isn’t courtesy, it’s the vilest thing in the world, and we must understand that and not play at war.  We must take this terrible necessity sternly and seriously.  That’s the whole point:  to cast off the lie, and if it’s war, it’s war, not a game.”

We are being reminded of this yet again, in the carnage suffered by people in the Holy Land and Ukraine. Both conflicts must be stopped and a basis for lasting peace put in place. That's what the people want. Leaders must step up and face reality and do what is right to achieve peace.
