Max Borders finishes the phrase All is fair in love and …:
Nope. Not war. If you prevent enemy combatants from getting enough shuteye, make them sit in uncomfortable positions or mock their genitals, — you have crossed the line in the 21st century. No, war has gotten a conscience (unless, of course, you’re a ‘freedom fighter,’ in which case strapping plastic explosives to yourself and walking into a school, market or mosque is fair).Actually, the answer is politics. ‘All is fair in love and politics.’ Try it out. It may not sound right at first, but you’ll warm to it. You’ll have to, because this new maxim has more verity than the old one.
