Because if you are trying to be honest and win a war, you’re just a playing called “debating with logic”. That isn’t actually a war. One can utilize logic and truth without having to go to war. One goes to war because logic and truth are no longer function or useful any more in solving problems, whereas deception and killing people will solve problems in war.
