However the French were the first to use chemical weapons before the first world war.

I don't know... I believe that if you take a close look at history and WHY wars happen you will find that most happen because of one people's land was infringed upon by another people, as a kingdom, state, or village had coveted the land another had. Granted there were some that could be attributed to religious beliefs, but power and politics really are the underlying causes. There was no religious reason for WW I or II, the American Revolution or American Civil War, Korea, or Vietnam, thy were fought over political differences.

We are still fighting each other today, the war still continues. They are little civil war's now. Why can't we all just get along with others.

infamousiceberg313, .. you are absolutely correct. He was a corporal until he ran through some gas and it affected his lungs . He spent a long time in hospital recovering and could no longer do running of messages between the different trenches . Apparently he was a great runner prior to WW1 hence his job in the German army

In reality Germany were the first to use CW with success ( war terms) in Ypres during the 1WW. Other countries had used before but with no expected result

Anibear315, Unfortunately, some people don’t realize that you were there because you love your own country & we all should live our country or go to one that they can love. The Soldiers coming home from a horrific war in Vietnam were pelted with eggs, tomatoes & rocks when they came home. Men who had fought for their country valiantly were treated very badly. It broke their hearts. Instead of being welcomed home as heroes- which they were, they were harmed by their own people. I have a suspicion that some of those who were participating in those crimes are now in control of our political system.
