LEGO´s anti-war policy: A little hypocrite?

[Blondie-Wan]

Vikings, pirates and knights aren't really fantasy... Except for dragons, wizards etc offcourse.

Besides, I'm not talking about real-world models of vehicles, nor real-life wars.

Even when fantasy elements are left out, the Viking, pirate and knight sets depict things from centuries ago, things no living person has ever seen in real life. The temporal remove essentially places them into the realm of fantasy, in that they occupy a place in the mind far different from what someone might witness on the six o' clock news.
