"War is Hell" by Keech Ballard

There is no other way around it

There is no other way to win

He/she who commits the most war crimes is the winner

It’s automatic


Chivalry has no part in it

Honor has little enough to do with it

Romance is just another form of survivor guilt

Willingness to act is the determining factor

If you want to know who won, you need only ask one thing


Which side committed the most war crimes?

The winner is the one with the biggest body count

You can never win by demonstrating any reluctance to participate


There are no exceptions

There never have been

There never will be

Because war is hell


Fortunately, the winners get to document the results

The losers qualify to take full responsibility

For their own war crimes of which there never is any shortage

Plus those of the victors of which there are always more


Just ask any Roman emperor

Those who name their own successors are the heroes

Those who fail get the goat whose name is Pan
