War is... Unfair

War is unfair to almost everyone involved. Both soldiers and the innocent members of the targeted communities have their lives taken from them due to warfare. They have no escape from the violence when their country is under attack. War is not fair to those who disagree with the war itself, and yet are still brought into the conflict. The photograph above shows just a few of the many who died during the Iraq war. The people in the photo represent the ordinary members of society who are just trying to live out a normal life, and want nothing to do with the war. It is quite difficult for them to avoid it considering the fact that their hometown is being invaded, and that they are losing loved ones and have fear for their own lives. Wars include the lives of innocent civilians being taken. War is unfair to people on both sides of the battle, and can wreck a whole country's stature due to the choices made by leaders which are reflected upon a country.
