WWI

This is what of think of WWi , i think it was uneccesary and was foolish because wat was basically happeing was that governments were romanticizing the war. Getting young men to join the fight by promoting the uniforms and the idea that women love soldiers. After they joined the real war and saw how brutal it was, they felt lied to and betrayed. World War 1 was fought for a  bad reasons, this added to the hatred of the war. I like Ernest Hemingway's descriptions on WW1 the best. He served in Italy, he was an American who joined the Italians to fight the Austrians. At that time America wasn't involved in the war yet. if you really want to see more view points in good ones about the war i recommend you read the short story  A Soldier's Home by Hemingway. It's a very brilliant short story and it can explian how redicilous th war was. i aslo feel that that there is no winner in a war and that anyone who tells you it's a wonderful or beautiful thing is a liar.
