WAR IS HOLY


"War is holy, its institution is divine
And one of the sacred laws of the world.
It maintains in men all the great emotions
Such as honor, magnanimity, virtue and valor,
And in a word it keeps them from falling,
Into the most repugnant materialism."

 - HERMUT VON MOLTKE, quoted in the Senderista pamphlet “ On war: Proverbs and citations”
