These are nice stories, not what happened in history.

The Aristocracy rose from war in every case when the delusions of priests and philosophers, and poets (Homer) failed upon contact with reality.

It is nice to spare the innocents, IF they are:: but it is far WORSE to spare the guilty.

That’s IF you wish - vainly- to mix morality with war, a practice you’ll rapidly be cured of by death or survival. Survival means doing what it takes.

At some points the Aristocracy in a few cultures did embrace restraint towards civilians, the results were satisfactory if the people wished for wars to at last end (Wellington in Spain then France) and utterly defeating if the people were against the invader and supported their boys no matter what- as Gaza chose HAMAS , Gaza made its choice.

Respect their choice.

Respect Gaza’s decision:

And let reciprocal respect from the Israelis be paid in full.

All we need to do as regards Israel is not betray them- but we already did and continue to...

GAE is DC and far from going to war for Israel betrays Israel for Iran. Iran being the cornerstone of Obama-Biden’s Mideast policy, betrayal of all including our own people and soldiers being the bedrock policy of DC.

The FBI is investigating one American named Robert Malley, whose security clearance has been suspended, he is the Chief Architect of the Iran as “balance” and “partner” in the MidEast.

Yes as usual money and favors changed hands.

Iran as 🇺🇸 partner; We tried that with the Shah, the Mullahs won’t make the same mistake.

As for the Americans; yes my fellow Americans you should learn the way of the sword-

But not from comic books.

History and the bitter experiences that will now shortly harden you or kill you will teach you the truth.

Thank you for the mention. As it happens, I helped coach fencing during my first year at my school. However, the program was cut thereafter, along with Latin and some other things.
