Movie Tidbits, Red Cliff 2

There's no victor here, we've all lost-- Zhou Yu

Wars are fought to conquer.
Wars are fought to protect.
In the end, much more is lost than won.
Yet, wars are inevitable.
For if you don't fight, you will definitely perish.
Your family will perish, your homeland will perish.
The battle of the Red Cliff is but one out of numerous examples.
