Connection Across Time

World War I was called "the war to end all wars" but there has been countless wars and fighting between countries since then. Also over 90 years after the war, we are still dealing with the consequences. Modern iraq, created by the British after WWI, forced Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds under a single flag and they've been at odds ever since. The seeds of today's conflict between Israel and the Palestinians go back to the British Mandate in Palestine after WWI. The "war to end all wars" proved to be anything but as its legacy is evident today from Iraq to Vietnam.
