For a gripping fictional account of this period’s complexities, read David Downing’s WWII thriller series: ZOO STATION, STETTIN STATION, SILESIAN STATION, and POTSDAM STATION. They’re not overtly theological (beyond a tip of the hat to Martin Niemoller), but they demonstrate that none of the warring parties had clean hands.

I have had many history teachers tell me that we needed World War II to get us out of the Great Depression. According to them the war created many needed jobs for civillians. However, I think our country may be too quick to jump on the band wagon for war. Careful though and reasoning needs to take place before we risk everything for war. The United States now is worn out from war. I doubt these wars will end in my lifetime and I am only 20 years old. We seem to have gotten ourselves stuck in our current wars, it’s like we are not moving forward or back.
