nicholas_saunders , 29 days ago @KathyLK @somekindahate3 @mondoweiss @palestine @israel I would look at, specifically: France, England, and Germany. They were at war for hundreds of years. But only when ruled by kings. On a sidenote, in the Napoleonic era uniforms were brightly colored to better track down deserters. But democracies rarely choose war. Tangentially, this was also misunderstood by the USSR -- that NATO wasn't seeking war. (Well, except Churchill and Lemay.)
