Definition of war:
“General Clausewitz examined the nature of war and defined it as a trinity with three
distinct characteristics. First, war is comprised of the same "blind natural forces" of "primordial violence"
observed in nature. Second, war contains "the play of chance and probability" rewarding "creative spirits."
Third, war is an instrument of national policy used to resolve political disputes.”
What does that remind you of?
