War Termination : The Proceedings of the War Termination Conference United States Military Academy West Point

by Matthew Moten

Anyone who has ever studied the history of American diplomacy, especially military diplomacy, knows that you might start in a war with certain things on your mind as a purpose of what you are doing, but in the end you found yourself fighting for entirely different things than you had ever thought of before. In other words, war has a momentum of its own and it carries you away from all thoughtful intentions when you get into it. – George Kennan, Oct 2002
