Not "give your life for". Rather "suicide".
As always, there's the subtle shift of focus.
I can "give my life for Freedom" while trying to stay alive during the battle.
I can even go on "suicide missions" where there's a slim chance I can fight my way back to friendly lines.
But, "is it a good thing to strap dynamite to your body and blow up some enemies"...........
That was the nature of the question posed.
As always, people over here do not grasp the DIFFERENCE in the cultures.
It may be that the standard wars can end only when the in-power minority in the powerful States - who always rise to that power by manipulating mass sentiment - outgrow a POV which places the welfare of a planet beneath internal personal fantasies of the Unknowable.
It might. But I wouldn't bet on it. Not any time soon. I don't think the human race, as a whole, is yet capable of handling multiple viewpoints. Or even realizing that multiple viewpoints exist.
It all gets back to the basic incantation of "right / wrong" and "good / evil".
Once you can define the world in broad terms, you don't need to waste your time looking for any deeper.
So, we start the indoctrination early. Sunday School. The Pledge of Allegiance. Teaching our sanitized history (where we are always the good guys).
Most people stop thinking / learning in their teens.
