From my experience with the URSS Afgan war veterans, the problem is not when children and women are trying to hurt you. The post-war nightmares come from you deliberately hurting them in most unimaginable ways. Unimaginable even to the perpetrators after the war finishes.
- DoreenMichele 5y agoIt was only intended to say in a nutshell "When you have a situation where people think it's appropriate to strap bombs to children, things are extremely ugly." I didn't really want to go into a whole lot of details. The ugliness of war is not really directly on topic and I try harder than I used to to make my point in a way that shouldn't require trigger warnings.
