Glory to the Killers

Description

I continue my series of reflections on war and eternal peace. We create heroes. We create idols. We absorb their greatness from childhood without thinking about who these people really were. Ironically, most of our past heroes are military men. They became great because of their martial exploits. They are written into the glorious history of our society through mass murder. Many nations base their "national identity" on past military events. The glorification of murder shapes the ideology of an entire country. Yes, many wars are defensive, but I'm not talking about the types of wars; I'm talking about our cultural diseases. I recognize the tragedy on which many of us base our ideals. In my work, I want to draw attention to the enormous value war represents in popular culture and ideology in much of the world. And by this work, I hope that military figures and their enablers will one day disappear as a profession
