Let me be clear: I am neither amoral nor relativistic when it comes to war and the moral issues surrounding it (that's well documented here). Thus, I don't look at the following in a particularly cognitive manner, which is to say that it's kind of like listening to a piece of music composed expressly for the purpose of evoking human emotion at a level of depth that motivates contemplation and reflection -- reflection on the value of what it ideally means to be a human being. I could pick at this, here and there, but that would miss the point.
