And I see there another title linked:

War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning
by Chris Hedges

< A veteran New York Times war correspondent's complex, moving, and
thought-provoking reflection on how life is lived most intensely in times of
war.
General George S. Patton famously said, "Compared to war all other forms of
human endeavor shrink to insignificance. God, I do love it so!" Though
Patton was a notoriously single-minded general, it is nonetheless a sad fact
that war gives meaning to many lives, a fact with which we have become
familiar now that America is once again engaged in a military conflict. War
is an enticing elixir. It gives us purpose, resolve, a cause. It allows us
to be noble. >
