Then factor in the comments of Gen. Smedley Butler: "War is a racket."

Maybe not all war. But he figured it was the way to bet. And he wasn't stupid or unversed militarily--he
was twice decorated with the Medal of Honor, for ations at Haiti and Veracruz.

Mean to say, there's necessity and there's "necessity"; and there's peril in not keeping an eye out for the
difference. Parallax and camouflage breaking benefit from having more than one eye open.
