Tell me, where is the glory in war?

Is there anything grand that can be salvaged from the murdering and brutal maiming — both physical and psychological — of millions of people?

Yes, there may sometimes be a right side and a wrong side, although in virtually every war the lines of guilt are so crisscrossed as to be indistinguishable. One's own side's causes are revered; those of the other side are vilified forever in the historical record of "good" (normally "winning") nations.
