Let us just let the one day be a day when we can show some respect.
The whys and wherefores are never sorted out on any day. Anzac day is the perfect launching pad for discussion. Year after year goes by as we move closer to the next conflict.

Ask yourself what a fallen soldier would have been most concerned about: being remembered, or having their kids and grandkids avoid the same fate? We're falling short on the most important of those options and in doing so dishonouring the fallen.
