Damn you Saddam!

If war could kill hatred, war doctrines should have received Nobel prizes; but perhaps one wouldn’t have to wait for even that to happen...

If mankind evolved from ‘Homo habilis’ to ‘Homo sapiens’ and if with each generation the complexity, intelligence and power redefined itself, the same can be attributed to the evolution of war. With passing time, the doctrine of war has redefined itself. And we found this special B&E double issue [on how to save capitalism through social responsibility] perhaps the rightmost forum to lament as usual on why war is the perfectly correct solution for peace... You actually believed that for a moment, did you? Well, insanely, so have some billions of the global population at one point of time or the other. But back to our laments...

The doctrines of war are jut not about war strategies but are like the eyes that saw and experienced changes in international societal system. When man was not even man and was more of an ape, he had to fight it out to survive. Being the weakest of the lot, [without any kind of expertise] it was only his shrewd mind that saw him through. Yet, that was perhaps the last time ‘men’ united to fight for their own survival, realising very soon that their biggest nemesis for all times would not be anyone else but their own brethren. That was when George Bush was born... Er, alright, we jumped the gun. He comes in much later [in our fourth story, actually. Pardon our impetuous nature.]

Fighting other species was perhaps far easier, it was fighting one’s own brethren that took the goat as that required constant upgradation of skills, and the realisation that ways and means would have to constantly evolve to kill that damn Saddam.
