Sobre IBD

A character in an Evelyn Waugh novel once remarked that ?There’s nothing wrong with war?except the fighting.? In Champions of Charity, John Hutchinson argues that while they set out with a vision to make war more humane, the world’s Red Cross organizations soon became enthusiastic promoters of militarism and sacrifice in time of war.
