War is like a wise executioner. It took Paul's ideals first, then Paul's friends, and then Paul's family. When Paul was tormented to death, it took his life when he was trying to find beauty as small as dust, and In the end, with the help of history, he wrote down the phrase "There is no war on the Western Front", erasing and ridiculing a young and fresh life. war! When did war ever change! From Homo sapiens smashing the back of Neanderthal heads with stones, to Mongolian horseshoes swept east and west, to European corpses piling up in front of machine guns and barbed wire, to despair in tanks during the Gulf War The Iraqi soldiers who were burned to the ground, war is like a machine that never rusts. When it starts, it will mercilessly and efficiently destroy the lives involved, until all the good things are gone.
From ancient times to the present, we have prayed countless times to stop the war, but the war has never stopped. Profit-seeking, hatred, prejudice, these dark sides of human beings, after being gathered, instigated and fictionalized, become an incomparably huge force driving the war machine, ignoring the cry of the weak, until people themselves are involved in it. Then, their descendants inherited their ugliness, forgotten their pain, and started a new cycle. Maybe this is the curse of mankind. It is the curse that God casts on mankind after he expelled mankind from the Garden of Eden, causing mankind to suffer and be powerless.
