    And suddenly there was war we didn't remember it
    A long time forgotten there suddenly was war
    And suddenly there was war our children are dead
    Burnt in the ruins that were left by war

    War

    And suddenly there was war and the mothers they screamed
    For revenge and reprisals for another war
    And suddenly and suddenly
    And suddenly there was war with spoiling and death
    And you fight alone if there's another war

    Whole Life Is War and whole life is pain
    And you will fight alone in your personal war

    War

    This is war

    War

    Wumpscut - War
    I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

    War has its time and place, but this war certainly never did. An awful, misguided, war......

    When you break it down into individual human components, it has the characteristics of aggression (among other things), but war as we know it today, is a concerted effort by those who would prefer to tell us all what to think and do.

  • War is irrational. War is what happens when you fail to use intellect to solve problems.

    "History", to me, as you put it, isn't natural, so you'll have to find a better way to express your question.

    People evolve past these methods...just as people have moved past many archaic methods of cavemen, slavery, racism, sexism in the past. These become outdated and less and less accepted. These old ways are replaced with more rational and mindful ways to co-exist. We're changing more and more every day. Embrace it. It's the future.

    If you resort to violence instead of intellectual reasoning to solve your problems in life then you're an irrational person.

    A better way to put it would be,
    In your personal history, how has war come to play a part in your life?

    And, don't give me any shenanigans about past wars and the american way. I want to know how you've confronted war on a personal basis.

    For instance, I served in the Marine Corps as a young man, and that is probably as close to war as I'll (hopefully) ever get.... How close to war have you been, yourself?

    Very true. But is it accepted? No, it's something that most of us all rail against...whereas it used to be accepted widely. That's evolution and it's spreading.

    Where, in your personal history have you confronted this scenario?

    Usually, war sucks I admit.

    War isn't that bad... if you're not fighting in it. And if you manufacture military weapons, war is freaking awesome. If your name is "Bernie" etc war is a tragedy you can take to the bank.


    In conclusion, the Indians had a wide and various culture.

    People have always found ways to rationalize things that are unacceptable nowadays. The indiscriminate killing of another people is something a large number of us are finding more and more unacceptable. It's growing everyday and one day will be a thing of the past...a rarity. If you disagree, that's fine but this is what I'm seeing.

    Yes, it is but it's getting better because it's getting more rare. The age of information can be a beautiful thing. People are joining together in awareness of these injustices and taking a stand.
