War is the most inhumane thing that man does to man, but when it becomes self evident that a leader or nation that has a track record of violence against his neighbor refuses to live up their obligations to disarm, the choice is clear...you don't wait for them to acquire the means of your distruction. Like a cancer it will not be contained, it must be eliminated.
Body count is so trivialized by saying we lost x number of men and killed x number of the enemy. Perhaps if we said x number of mother's sons were killed today, maybe just maybe we wouldn't be so fast to rush into war.
