“War is no longer an event. It is a condition. At its core, war is brutally simple. It does not create—it destroys. It does not negotiate—it takes. The objective is clear: weaken the enemy, seize what can be taken, and protect what must not be lost. Everything else—strategy, diplomacy, justification—comes later.” WarGeopoliticsArms Control Book:THE BUSINESS OF WAR Source: THE BUSINESS OF WAR
