Background information: David Lloyd George was a member of the British Parliament during World War I. This excerpt is from his memoirs.
The nations slithered over the brink into the boiling cauldron of war without any trace of apprehension or dismay . . . Amongst the rulers and statesmen who alone could give the final word which caused great armies to spring from the ground and march to and across frontiers, one can see now clearly that not one of them wanted war; certainly not on this scale.
