    Madness of War

    The terrifying truth of war is the stench of burned flesh, the cries of those slowly dying under the rubble, and long trenches filled with corpses. In a world where morality no longer matters and historical amnesia plagues the atmosphere, I expose the reality of mass destruction.

    Can seeing the effects of violence upon innocent people change our perspective of conflict? Cutting through the opinions, noise, and illusions of mass media, I focus on humanity. Regardless of what side you are on, the results are agony. Read more about this series.
