"You can look at
war as a massing of arms and matérial and troops,
but you can also see it as something else--as a delicate
web of interwoven choices made by human beings, made out
of a certain consciousness. The decision to order an attack,
the choice to obey or disobey an order, to fire or not to
fire a weapon. Armies and, indeed, any culture that supports
them must convince the people that all the decisions are
made already, and they have no choice. But that is never
true." The Fifth Sacred Thing" by Starhawk
