「戦争に正義はない」 - "No Justice in War" -

The truth is obscured by war propaganda. Both countries claim that "we are fighting a war for justice." What should we believe? Even though we understand that there is no justice in war, we feel powerless to stop it. This chaotic situation and sense of helplessness are expressed in calligraphy.
