If you didn't know already; Albert Einstein didnt just give us many advances in science, he also had a lot to say about many other things including war. I have a few books by him including "The World as I see It" and "Ideas and Opinions" which can be found here. He absolutely hated war and here is one of his most famous quotes which illustrates this perfectly:
"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable loce-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder. "
