A friend of mine tipped me off to this and I had to share it. Sometimes you need complete absurdity to point out the absurdity right in front of you. The earlier 90s show Dinosaurs does just that in a two part “mini-series.”

In this episode, “Nuts to War,” the two legged dinosaurs are upset that they’re experiencing a pistachio shortage, which they soon discovered has been caused by (blamed on) the neighboring four legged dinosaurs. The government launches Operation We Are Right as a response. I think you see where this is going…

Do we ever really know why countries go to war? Do you ever stop and question why we seem so quick to go along with it all?
