War is cruel. But some of the groups involved in the war have the selfish interests of the group, and some are forced to participate in it in order to safeguard the interests of the broader people. For example, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in my country is a just war in order not to be slaves of the country, but a war of justice in resisting the Japanese invaders; for example, the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the military and civilians of our country made huge sacrifices, and also to defend their country. Many soldiers sacrificed their lives and devoted themselves to a war to defend the enemy outside the Yalu River, thus creating a peaceful development environment for our country for nearly a hundred years.
