Is life so precious that it's always better to live a few hours or a few days longer, rather than to die fighting a known enemy?

Yes. It is same. There is no change in it.

If there is any difference, there will be a Press Statement. The main thing is confusion remains same whether you like to interpret it this way or that way.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
