Agree with others that is about the "evils" of war, and probably more so the motives for war (e.g. greed, lust, point of differences). In other words we lie to ourselves (and they lie to everyone) about the true motives behind war.
For example, we thought the Vietnam War was "right" to stop the spread of Communism and to protect the Democracy of South Vietnamese. But really it was an ideological war being waged between the USA and Russia with each hoping to show that their "system" is best. We lie to ourselves though to make the war seem "right".
