For What?

Every evil has a point of delivery.
Every evil has a point of origin.

When evil comes seeking you out, from a variety of sources, and at various times, but producing the same effects over and again, you can triangulate.

You can see what launched the attacks. Or at least deduce the source.

And this leads me to ask this: did hundreds of thousands of people go to war to kill thousands of foreigners, simply because the sororities, the fraternities, the societies behind American society, decided that furtherance of American conquest and the need for 'healthy' bloodletting required it?

I think so.

And I think that they found a natural ally in the public school-educated rulers of the British allotment.
