War is never needed though, is my point. Yes unprompted aggression deserves a response (I'd never advocate for just laying down and taking the fascist boot), but war itself only produces destruction, broken homes, and broken families.

My comment was more about those who have not been through an actual war but romanticise it. There is nothing romantic about it.
