War is not part part of an individual it is a part of all combined, you cannot live in a world of peace, there is always violence of some way.

WHY?
Is it because humanity as a whole can not combine to one goal,the preservation of the human race.
If another planet declared war on the human race you think there would be countries would declare war on each other?
No the would combine their sources to survive, if humanity can do this to protect humanity, it will do this to have peace.

If something like that happened, the World's nations would only band together because it would serve their own interests. Once that threat was eliminated they would go back to bickering and serving their own interests again.

Preventing war and death and destruction, this would not be to their "best interest"?

Not if other interests require death and war. People can always have more kids to rebuild a population.

People are not inherently good. Hate to break it to ya.

That's not exactly "beaking news" to me.

What is a dissapointment is the number of people that accept war as a part of humanity.

Some people accepted segregation as a part of humanity at one time some other people including myself didn't agree and decided to change that.

As long as people accept WAR as a part of humanity there will always be WAR.
WHEN SOMEBODY STANDS UP AND SAYS NO THIS IS NOT HOW HUMANITY SHOULD DO THINGS THEN HUMANITY WILL STAND A CHANCE, OTHER WISE?

I understand what you are saying. But it is not a part of humanity, it is a part of society. There is a difference.

Segregation and war are two different things.

As long as there are reasons to go to war there will always be war. As long as there are nations, money, and resources there will be war. One or more of these is often the driving force in war. If you have any one of these three things you will have war.

WAR is part of soceity,whose soceity?
Ask the question who benitfits from WAR?

WAR and segregation aren't really that differant.Segregation WAS wrong, War is wrong.

Nations,money and resourcs are the reason for WAR?
However if humanity combined forces to fight poverty,hunger,and share what resources there are equaly. WELL?

Bottom line;
Although I have fought in a war, and if called would fight for America again.
I CAN NOT ACCEPT WAR AS A NECESSITY.
No matter if it's nations,money,resources or society, WAR IS NOT NECESSARY, WAR SUCKS.

That depends.

That is an opinion. Some war is wrong, some is not. That is also an opinion.

But we know that this will not happen in our lifetimes, nor our children's or children's children's.

That is an opinion. And you are entitled to your opinion. War is a necessity in some cases.

Yes it does.
