The article by Il Giornale discusses the perception of a military defeat as a positive outcome compared to the horrors of war. The author argues that losing a conflict while avoiding large-scale casualties and potential regional devastation is preferable to winning through violent means. The piece critiques the idea of 'winning' wars by killing civilians and destroying cities, suggesting that true victory lies in ending conflicts without bloodshed. It also reflects on the broader implications of modern warfare, questioning whether future wars could be fought through technology rather than physical destruction, and advocating for control over AI systems.
