From the first ad, above: "To abolish this whole silly business of war." the ads aren't anti-WWI, they're anti-war, period. Don't get me wrong, war sucks. But I dare anyone who says that there's never a situation where war is preferable to the alternative to say that to the face of a child who lost her parents at Bergen-Belsen, or Japanese occupied Shainghai, or the killing fields of the Khmer Rouge.
War is a sometimes necessary evil, and any who believes otherwise in the name of humanity may like humanity, but they don't apparently like people too much.
