[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 507378, member: 11425"] To me, the movie Apocalypse Now demonstrates perfectly the hypocrisy of war in that to do good we commit acts of evil, but acts of evil that we say are justified. When Kurtz in the movie goes off the reservation and uses any means to justify the ends we call him a mad man, but ironically he delivers the results that eludes our "moral" military. It is a difficult conundrum for anyone with a conscience to resolve but we almost all come to the point where we find that evil in the form of violence to another is indeed justified if the stakes are high enough.
