War

Many people watch the news and they are bewildered.

The never ceasing never ending wars.

For they don’t look inward and see the wars they themselves are fighting.

Against time. Against their own bodies. Against their bosses, co-workers, other companies vying for position.

War is everywhere.

But that isn’t what this article is about - necessarily.

It is about the practice of war.

People are lacking in knowledge.

You see a fundamental principle of war - is to practice it without stoppage.

You must always be ready.

One of the reasons we see so much of it, is that earlier versions before big clashes are actually armies… practicing!

You might say a nation goes to wars in a small form simply to practice strategy and machinery and keep their members active?

Yes.

Germany went to Spain before the real wars started to … practice!

We all need practice. Minor skirmishes here and there are perfect battlegrounds for larger powers to keep their forces ready.

This is a fundamental principle in war!

But how horrible! A large nation goes to war against a much smaller one every few years… to practice!?

Yes.

That can’t be!

Yes lol. Yes it’s horrible. But so is losing the real war against the real adversary and becoming a vassal state. Choose your poison.
