Selected claim, opposing its parent

War can inspire acts of bravery, kindness, and heroism.

Pros

Cons

  • Pro claim 1

    First responders, medical workers, and others have displayed remarkable courage and have saved many lives in times of war.

  • Pro claim 2

    Civilians have been known to risk their lives in order to save others during times of war, as was the case of Oskar Schindler.

  • Con claim 1

    These acts, while commendable, would not have been necessary without the depravity that war brings.
