War...Bummer

  War is a phenomena were people tend to do things they would have never even thought of doing in normal live by a sudden dehumanization that can't really be explained. Survival and duty might sometimes be a reason why people loss their humanity in a blink of an eye, however there are times were the cruelty being done would seem to overcome these reasons but then a deeper, possibly irreversible dehumanization takes place. Extreme denial and self justification take over at first and can even drive you to insanity but when you find yourselves at the brink of turning back you become indifferent, indifferent to your crimes because it was either that or going crazy, or doing whats right which most of the time the sense of right and wrong gets lost in the process. Your indifference will not stand out as much and you will not give it that much importance since the what surrounds you is as well indifferent and the society that surround you acts the same so you can't feel how terrible you have become. Its when war ends and which ever side wins or losses you survive and enter a new world that is sick and repulsed by war because they know its nothing but pain...that's when you realize that you are a monster and you will always be, its branded in you and no matter how much you drink, cry in your sleep or remember it so vividly you could swear you are there it won't work cause your last shreds of humanity vanished with your indifference of other human lives. As Martin Luther King once said "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter".
