General Sir John Hackett: “The military makes demands which few other callings do. Emotionally disturbed people talk about being trained to kill. The whole essence of being a soldier is not to slay but to be slain. You offer yourself up to be slain, rather than setting yourself as a slayer. One can get into very deep water here, but there’s food for thought in it.”
The most dishonest concept in the scholarly world (evolutionary psychology) is the idea of "male aggression" as the cause of warfare, as if soldiers fight because they wisto express an individual (biological) desire).
Warfare is a human institution or ideology. Soldiers fight because they feel an obligation to their societies. CLICK THROUGH TO THE LINKS ABOVE if you wish to understand the nature and meaning of warfare.
