    Total war is not just an abstract political move, it’s an immense suffering and deaths of dozens of thousands of civilians.

    It’s easy to play political mastermind from the safety and comfort of your home. People who witnessed war know full well what it entails, and they know it’s not just numbers and maps and politics.

    It’s blood. It’s broken families. It’s famine. It’s the destruction of everything they valued. It’s PTSD for just about everyone who managed to survive.

    Think twice before saying things like that. Please.
