Though there was a novel by name War and Peace, I am reminded of the novel by name 1984 by George Orwell whenever I hear the words war and peace. Because, somewhere in the novel, completly strange things happen and it goes on to way ‘war is peace’, meaning, only if there is war out there, will there also be peace.
Our leaders seem to agree with that horrendous proposition. Take our beloved country. Enough and more has been written about the foreign policy of the US. And how US sells the war machine and the tanks and the missiles to make money which keeps peace within US.
