I think this is not necessary - possibly "all those afected". For one
thing, there are more than 2 sides affected.
One of the sad facts of war (whether justified or not in anyone's
opinion) is the emotional wreckage that it heaps upon non-combatants in
many parts of the world. Consider the effects thus far on our little
microcosm of the FVWM developer community. In this ongoing argument, we
have all become victims of this war in our own small way (though
certainly not to the same extent as those killed, maimed, or left
homeless in the actual theater of operations), regardless of where we
live, our political leanings or ethical principles, or whether we are on
one side, the other, or neither.
Cheers,
Bob
