It is no use dealing with illusions and make-believes. We must look at the facts. The world ... is too dangerous for anyone to be able to afford to nurse illusions. We must look at realities.
Winston Churchill
The story of the human race is war. Except for brief and precarious interludes there has never been peace in the world and long before history began murderous strife was universal and unending.
