Students who oppose being involved personally in a war they can't understand are treated to batons and courts. They're called “Red Agitators.”

      What they really object to probably is a conscript army (which is an uneconomic, inefficient and foolish idea begun by a mass killer known as Napoleon) and the specter of inflation and world unrest they know they'll inherit when, getting older, they take over the reins.

      There's no cool head in the Establishment who has the job of listening and finding out what it's all about and mediating.

      If the ideas in opposition actually could be sorted out, they would cease to be in total opposition and some probably overdue reforms could occur and the violence would greatly diminish.

      As it stands today, both sides of the conflict are seldom reported and violence is the routine way of things.
