    • psychological
    • physical
  • Analyzes overlooked truths of war
    • who should really be fighting wars
      • politicians, generals, etc.
    • where does war begin?
  • The blinded public's understanding on the "glory" of war
    • nationalism/pride
  • The indoctrination of 'war culture' into youth
    • teachers and the like
