How can you both say that the war is a vanity project for the rich and powerful and the same time argue that the deaths caused by it have meaning?

Because for some people they do.

edit: In another post you mentioned the breakaway republics, there you have your examples. People who don't want to live under a certain regime or don't want to live under theirs anymore. Sometimes fighting is the only option left for people, and sometimes fighting people know they will die fighting.

Maybe that is what you should do.

I actually have a position.
