Man considers himself superior to other animals but there are no wars in the animal kingdom. individual killing does take place among animals but the war which can be called a mass murder is unknown to other animals. You might have heard the phrases. We do not know how many more will be added to the vocabulary of war.
This lesson points out the difference between the ancient wars and modern war. In the days of RAMAYANA and MAHABHARAT, the war was fought on the battlefield and that too during the day. Now the civil population is not spared. Nights are more suitable for attacking the enemy country. the effects of war are felt long after the war is over. Even generations in the future suffer. The old proverb ' sins of the parents are visited on the children' has never been so true as it is in modern times. if a man learns from history. he will not make the same mistakes and history will not repeat itself.
