Any war is made up of a horde of personal tragedies-but the greater picture is the tragedy of the death of a way of life. For a way of life-good, bad, or indifferent-exists because it is dearly loved....or at least that is the theory. Is freedom always a good thing? Is the act of destroying a way of life to spread 'freedom' something that is always wanted or desired, or is it just another brutal way of imposing slavery and a sad life on people who do not have any wish to change.
