Political War and Woolly Thinking

[slapout9]

Very interesting and timely subject. I have read and re-read CvC since 1972 by several different authors (translations) and for Xmas I received the newest Kindle edition and have been re-reading it since 3 JAN 14. I am more convinced than ever that he has been seriously misunderstood by default or by intention in order to support various interest and points of view.

So to answer your question nore directly "all war is political" is a fundamental misunderstanding of CvC. He means War is part of Politics. It is a lesser included set where the primary is Politics.
