Two different views of the same tragic war.
A million different people thrown at Death's door.
And who is to say who's right and who's wrong?

And who is to say who's right and who's wrong?
Perhaps in the end the blame we so freely place,
Is our own cowering shame and disgrace.

One reflection seems to illustrate
