Who writes of war as betrayal in the following manner: "War is always about . . . betrayal. It is about the betrayal of the young by the old, idealists by cynics and finally soldiers by politicians.

They are doomed, like wandering spirits, to float around the edges of our consciousness. . . The message they bring is too painful for us to hear. We prefer the myth of war, the myth of glory, honor, patriotism, and heroism, words that in the terror and brutality of combat are empty, meaningless, and obscene."
A. Martin Luther King, Jr. B. Chris Hedges C. Mahatma Ghandi D. Simone Weil E. Wendell Berry
