The saying comes from Chinese military general Sun Tzu who wrote "The Art of War," one of the most famous books on warfare and tacits of all time. The saying baiscally means that to be effective in war you must decieve the enemy at all times. You have to trick the enemy into believeing you have different intentions than you actually have. Sun Tzu stressed the importance the use on spies and double agents, as they are integral in deception and knowing your enemies goals. In a war, if your goals and tactics are predictable, they will be easy to exploit, which is why the enemy must be constantly deceived. A good example is the Normandy invasion during WWII. The allies spent months fabricating communications to make the Germans believe the allies were going to land in Pas de Calais, which enabled them to take the beaches in Normandy facing much less resistance.

What does Carl Von Clausewitz says about war and deception?
Carl von Clausewitz, in his seminal work "On War," emphasizes that deception is a crucial element of warfare. He argues that war is not just a clash of arms but also a contest of wills, where misleading the enemy can provide a significant advantage. Deception can take many forms, including misinformation and feigned movements, and is essential to create uncertainty and exploit the opponent's vulnerabilities. Ultimately, Clausewitz views deception as an integral part of strategy, underscoring its importance in achieving military objectives.

Are the causes of war often complex and difficult to identify?
No, the causes of war are simple and easy to identify it is the causes of people that are complex and because of deception difficult to identify. In the Art of War, Sun Tsu said that all warfare is based on deception. Thus, all wars are rife with lies told to opposing sides, to alliances and to countrymen in the name of war but this is not the cause of war but merely the process. There have been many treatise and doctrines written on the nature of war and many of them can often seem complex and difficult to understand. The most famous of these complex and hard to identify causes of war is most probably On War by Von Clauswitz. Von Clauwitz used a dialetical approach to war which can often times lead to gross misinterpretations of what Von Clauswitz is actually saying. A perfect example of this is his statement, (most famous of all from On War), that all warfare is just an extension or continuation of politics is embraced as a cause of war or a complexity of war but the complexity lies not in the cause of war but in Von Clauwitz' dialetical approach to war. The argument that war is a continuation of politics is merely the endgame of his argument that all war is merely a duel or wrestling match exponentially grown. War, all war, is caused by disagreement. It is just that simple. Even the complexities of a multitude of treatise that drug all of Europe and eventually The United States into World War I, for example, was not the cause of that war but rather the outcome of the cause of that war. The cause was the assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand by a Bosnian Serb nationalist named Gavrilo Princip. The cause of this assassination was a yearning for a Greater Serbia or Yugoslavia which at this time was subject to the Austrio-Hungarian Empire. It was, in its simplest terms, a disagreement of sovereignty and while there is truth in Von Clauwitz assertion that such a disagreement is a continuation of politics that continuation is not the cause but rather the disagreement is.
