War has always been a
facet of human history. We
have fought either
individually, as neighbors,
towns, cities, states,
countries, and empires. The
causes are numerous, they
range from the desire for
food, reproduction
resources, and personal
disputes. In a broader
perspective we have fought
over resources, religion,
trade, land, wealth, empire
building, security, fear,
ideological differences,
nationalism identity and
finally poor leadership.
Today we face psychological
wars, cold wars, civil wars,
wars between individual
nations and states,
coalitions, spies vs
spies. limited intrusions
militarily, economically and
politically. Undeclared wars
with no actual declaration,
cause or end result. Even
popular entertainment venues
such as Star Trek, Star Wars
and other SCI FI shows many
times views war as part of
our future. But the end
result is and will be the
loss of life (both civilian
and military), the raping
and sexually assault of
women and men, the
destruction of property, the
thef of resources and
wealth, the spreading of
fear and terror and finally
the misery of all involved.
I don't know if we as humans
will ever end this horrible
ways of existence. One can
only hope!,
“Never think that war, no matter how
necessary, nor how justified, is not a
crime.” Ernest Hemingway
