Wars and relativism.

Reader comment on item: How Much Can Air Power Achieve?

Submitted by steven L (United States), Apr 6, 2015 at 17:01

The world leaders want to convert winning wars into chronic wars to avoid offending the losers and to avoid so called "crimes against humanity". This looks very much like converting cancers into some kind of "chronic diseases". The chronic wars are full of crimes against humanity specially in the Muslim world. And nobody cares, unless it is Israel.

Chronic and recurrent low grade wars solve no problems. Relativism has now become a significant cause of wars.
