About This Quote
In war, people are killed because of who they are or who they support. While it’s true that some people die in war, even more die because of the conduct of the war. War is a very serious matter and a lot of lives can be lost in a single moment. In fact, a person may forget all about the fact that he or she killed someone in combat.
