Sometimes war is inevitable like WWII. It ended up a Total War which meant both
sides took social license and even attacked civilian targets only one side was
prosecuted for war crimes. Vietnam was a war that did not need to happen as the
events prior could have solved the issue.
At the end WWII Indochina was given back to the French a huge mistake. Had that
not happened I don't think it would have seen Communist domination. The French
lost at Dien Bien Phu in 1956 that is when the west decided to go in to help the
south and the nation split. People didn't want Communism they wanted freedom
This is the type of conflict that repeated itself in Iraq.
Iraq was a dictatorship but it was preferable to alternatives and by the look of it
democracy is not really accepted and has not done the people much good because
most have no embraced it and won't until more education and infrastructure ensures
a societal view of things


Bullshyte, WWII was a direct result of WWI, and WWI was not necessary at all. The Arch Duke is murdered so the world goes to war? Pi ss poor excuse. Try again old man.

The majority of wars, that we have been involved in, over the last 100 years or more have had nothing to do with that.
What, you don't recollect standing on the shores of Canada fighting off the Germans, Austro-Hungarians, Italians, Ottomans, Japanese, Koreans, and Afghans that landed with the intent of taking your stuff?

Mr. Wolf had it right on the nose. Man and woman, or if you go a bit deeper, human vs human. The key word there is "human". The only way for there not to be war is by eliminating the human factor.
Innie vs outie thing is drama. Put two people into an empty room. One of them will want to be boss. One of them will resent it.

You need to grow up, not me. You think everything is down to some human nature nonsense.

That isn't what I was getting at, but to answer your unrelated question - only if you believe in free will.

Should you be held responsible for your low IQ because your mom dropped you on your head when you were a baby?

Unlike you, I take responsibility for my actions. I don't blame others. You, on the other hand, are in here blaming "things" for the actions of people.

ALL wars are the responsibility of people. You are like the fu cking idiots that blame a glock 9 for the death of a 3 yr old.

DB ( There's the characters causing of 87.3 % of the worlds warfare meeting to determine who will best ensure the continuation of war.)

No, that's greed.

Learn the difference, and also what the actual cause is. Hint, it's not a "thing".

The worlds most sucessful capitalists all know and love greed. As a matter of fact the higher practice of capitalism requires a PHD in greed.
