I think it's like a money cult that has become expert at war profiteering. As we look back and at the present we see a clear plan for ongoing tensions in that region and others that somehow (coincidentally?) give the authors and the ruling class in general an indomitable fortune in cash. Those are other people's deaths, far away.
And when you watch the ruling class glide down the aisle in their graduatiopn caps and gowns each year at Harvard there is no blood on them. Their purity and cleanliness gleams in the sun. Just like their shiny cars, which kill people too.
You can not see the death behind the glam.
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.
