Re: Air Power

Of course an easily understandable point by Tolkien. WWII showed clearly how vile aeroplanes can be in warfare with their ability to easily wage war on civilists far behind the front; and to which simple killing-mechanism war can further be reduced when you not even stand face to face with your opponent, and not even on the same level.

<h6>'Spring is all around you / and calls your name softly in the wind / Burning when the day is dying / she kills the rays of a boundless sun. / And falls after years of death / eternally on your tears of joy. / So feel, feel the hands of glory / that will lead you into a golden sea.' (Kirlian Camera, 'Ascension') </h6></p>
