"Keith Murdochs Letter", which aired on ABC lastnight, or was it SBS, one or the other, sheds pretty good light on it all.
Because it's nice to know if the author has any idea what he's writing about!
Unsubstantiated assertions and conclusions delivered in an emotive manner isn't usually the Hallmark of a serious researcher or historian and appears to have little (if any) credibility factually.
What you have quoted appears to be a 'heart wringing' fairy story penned by an unknown author quoting unknown sources and reaching unjustified or substantiated conclusions.
Basically meaningless literary and psuedo historical crap !
I haven't decided if this Dan Moody is a US senator, a B grade movie actor, an Australian 'data manager' or FIFO worker. Certainly no one with any recognised historical or research credibility that I can find.

Who are our real enemy's...? The answer to that is simple. Us. We as humans have an uncanny knack of fighting, being unable to get along, and generally making an arse of many things we are given. Wars, pollution, greed, life... I'll leave you with that thought....

'The more the smoke, the more the poke!!'
I haven't met very many people with a PhD who had any inkling of real life and/or produced anything other than meaningless reams of paper that no-one except their peers will ever read, other than empty-headed political types looking for a way to ingratiate themselves with followers of a particular cause.

Although very one sided the piece IS well written and does contain some elements of truth.
Regardless of if you agree or not with what has been written, It does give you cause to think about exactly why we are prepared to sacrifice the lives of our Nations children in the various conflicts that we have chosen to send our youth to.
None of us has any enemies from a century ago.
What we can do is look at the historical facts and determine how we can avoid falling into the same traps.
If you're talking about Them and Us. The entity that was Them a century ago, no longer exists. They are all different people and evolved Cultures and so are we.
Recriminations are utterly pointless.
Cheers, Billy.
Keeping it simple is complicated.
