So the series WWII in HD on the history channel started this week and will go for 4-5 days. It is suppose to be the first time that actually WWII footage is restored to HD quality. I cheer the effort to restore this footage and remember history before something happens to these dwindling footages. But as i have watched the trailer I can not help but to almost cry. So many lives lost. So many families destroyed. For what?? Dirt and the prospect of calling it property. The part in this trailer that got me the most was the footage of the little japanese child. Made me almost cry. Made me sad. Made me hate war. If you want to see why i can not justify designing weapons in the future, then watch the trailer. I won't lie, i want to watch this series. I want to learn about the history of the war and from the people who fight it. But in the end war is just destruction, it gains nothing.
