From the moment you pack your bags, the soldier's life no longer belongs to him, but only to the country.
When he first raised his gun on the battlefield, they weren't just fighting for the honor of this country.
They fight for their comrades. They fight for themselves.
War has made people more sober, and historical war has also made us see the world as it really is.
In 1941, Hitler gave orders, and countless young people were drafted into the army. On the one hand, they continue to send young lives to the front to fight, and complete an endless killing with young lives from another country. On the one hand, they arrested and slaughtered Jews in their own country, in the name of purifying their own race.
Germans hate the Jewish people, call them dirty and inferior, don't treat them as Germans, or even as human beings. It may be a problem left over from history, but no one is born with a sense of superiority, and people of different identities treat racial differences differently. People who believe in a proposition are those who are relatively close to the person who provoked it. It is also possible that they believe in this person. Otherwise, why would there be a mob?
Greta can fall in love with Jews, and nurses can save lives, why can those officers shoot a little Jewish girl like a duck's neck in broad daylight?
As they become an indispensable force in the country, they may also be insulting the country.
Someone once said that my wish is world peace.
No one is born to like war, we all want world peace.
In April 2022, Putin announced a special military operation in Ukraine. I believe that all wars have historical roots and that wars may be negotiated in more peaceful ways.
When it comes to war, the youth of today may be different from those of the past. For the fathers of the father's generation, a man must have the lofty ideal of fighting for national honor since he is an adult. The life of a soldier belongs to the country, and death in battle is the embodiment of the value of life. Just like Fredheim's father in That's how he was treated when he was sent home injured. So he would rather return to the battlefield.
For Fredheim's generation, they have parents, go to school, read, love, sing, and drink. Even if they have high-spirited passion and ideals, it is because they have not seen the war with their own eyes. cruel.
Is this passion ideal really what we recognize and praise? Have passion and ideals, isn't it because of love?
Friedheim is a ruined generation who spent their youth learning to kill someone on the battlefield to protect themselves from being killed by the enemy. From the dazed and at a loss at the beginning, to the ease with which it was later, it was distressing to see.
The most pitiful is William. He seems to have also changed a person. It seems that he has exchanged souls with Fredheim, and gradually could not bear the cruelty of the war. He chose to stay away from being captured and ended up being shot.
They are all people who were sacrificed by the war, they are livestock, they are tools. Maybe we've all lived with a huge lie, helping others create a huge scam, and when all the liars are dead, no one will know the truth.
