Most people don't know what Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration actually means in practice, how it should work, and why it's a specialized domain of research and practice.

full disclosure, as someone who was an adult during those times, i still take a dim view of the first gulf war, and not in the mood to debate it too much at the moment, but i don't call the highway of death a war crime anymore (sigh, yes, anymore, people can learn things).
