war mean thinking
I think that nonviolence is one way of saying that there are other ways to solve problems, not only through weapons and war.

At some point they have to begin to understand one another. Rigoberta Menchu
war drama mean
It's great when you can bait and switch people - and I don't mean that in a negative way, I mean that in truth.

Richard Shepard
war years europe
When you see what goes on in Iraq on a daily basis - more people dying in car bombings - you almost brush it aside after a while. To actually comprehend the human tragedy of these events is overwhelming. We see so many images, but there's always the sense, for Americans, that it's not in our backyard. That's another reason why the war in Bosnia was so fascinating; because it really was in Europe's backyard. It was in Europe. And they didn't do anything about it for years. It took the Americans to end that war, really. That's a shame.

war reality laughing
Just take Germany and the suffering of Jews during and after the Second World War. It would be legal to ridicule and to laugh at this suffering, but since it was such a trauma on the European conscience, no one is going to do it. It is an open scar, an open wound, an open reality.

We were to contain the enemy by the silent threat of a vast, unknown desert
