Anyone who equates a war (specifically WWII) to a terrorist attack is a moron. I'm sorry, but read a book or watch the History channel and learn something, PLEASE.

In what aspect? They both involve tragedy, the taking of lives (both soldiers and civilians). The only difference I see is "legitimacy" (an official war vs. a terrorist attack), the scale and quantity (a life taken is a life taken though), and such...

Honestly, besides people getting killed, I don't see how they are similar.


War = typically soldiers vs. soldiers, and the fighting is typically "justified" from all sides 

Terrorism = civilians or soldiers vs. "innocent" civilians - there is typically no "fighting," and it is not seen as "justified" from all sides

I hope you are aware that WW II has seen acts of planned methodical mass genocide (by Germany, Japan and Soviet Union) on a scale that makes 11th september a child's play. And almost all of those were against civilians.

 

So how many games have you played based on the Holocoust or other war crimes? None?

 

 

The way you talk just sounds jaded.
