I like the verse you choose (I even managed to translate it almost completely on my own!), it certainly puts its finger on one of the things I despise most about wars: Those who decide that they're justified seldom end up having to wade through blood and suffering and wear the scars.
Of course, that's all bleeding-heart sentimentalism and in reality...
WT*, I spend too much time over at politics_forum. In reality, it sucks that someone who goes as "military leader" spends his weekends in comfort while those he's supposed to lead can count themselves lucky if they may phone their families.
