    Yes, but what about those women who have to lose their husbands and sons? They are the real victims.

      You’re not wrong that they matter too, but both things can be bad

        I don’t know how many people have noticed, but I was being sarcastic.

            Lol it was a reference to how Hilary Clinton once said wives and daughters were the real victims of war.

          Hillary Clinton, 1998?

          Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat.

          Best to use /s when you are.

          Even italicising a point doesn’t seem to make it through the consumption to understanding; need to be more explicit here it seems.
