its always like that
one day war will be called what it is -organized crime .
against the soldiers that they make sacrifice and fight
against the vanquished and the dead
against the ones who inherit the conflict and its fallout down the road in a few generations
etc etc
the soldiers are usually the ones who put it on the line ,and they are quickly forgotten and left to stew in their own problems after the victory has been celebrated and the loot is safely tucked away out of sight and mind .
the dead civillians are already forgotten by then .
and the ones who profit from it all - laugh all the way to the bank ..
OK - bit of a rant there .. I feel that this is a historical fact in MOST wars .
