Last thing I want to see is more of what war looks like.

I do not recommend for anyone to see those pictures unless you want to feel sick. Title: Re:For those who want to know what War is: Post by: *DAMN Elandrion on March 25, 2003, 08:20:43 am yeah i know. I thought i'd share this link with you, so everyone sees what really is behind the clips you see in the mass media. in the first days of the iraq war, i too felt like watching a giant video game... but seeing this, only hardened my opinion that you can't show war like that. it was not my intention to sicken any of you.

Title: Re:For those who want to know what War is: Post by: Typhy on March 27, 2003, 09:27:06 am Yeah, the WW1 one does look a bit off.
I personaly find it good to look at these things kinds of things from time to time. Not everything is pleasent, and I sometimes you need a reminder of that. Us civilians have the options to just avoid things like that, the least we can do is try and understand the best we can what it's like up there. |
