So, the point to this cartoon, and the belief of many posters on this site, is that diplomacy is always, in any situation, worse than worthless. Weaponry and death are the only methods that should be considered to settle an argument. Am I understanding correctly?
Slaughterhouse Five or The Children’s Crusade: A Duty-Dance with Death (1969). It’s semi-autobiographical because Kurt Vonnegut was actually in Dresden during the bombing. It was also made into a movie in 1972.
