- yetanotherphd 13y agoso you wish, for example, that more soldiers on both sides had died during WWII?
- ivanca 13y agoThat's a way too-emotionally charged question for someone pretending to be "utilitarian". But the answer is: No, I wish there weren't any soldiers to begin with. Dead being just the most common way they disappear, plus is always a political assertion the prime causative, so to avoid refilling wars with youngsters it's more effective to stop that.
