Most wars are pointless. Some do serve a purpose and better the world. Look at WW2, it was a necessary war, millions of Innocent minorities and Jews were being systemically killed. Our country didn't really want to get involved until the Germany started flying over London. Most wars are pointless, they are politically motivated.

War wasn't pointless back in the past, it helped us become free and save others from death too. But I think that it is VERY pointless NOW ! Where not saving anyone being over there ! They will alwase be killing each other over there untill the world dies. Where only loosing our people over there for no reason, we cant stop them and theres no sence in trying to. Just let them kill each other off and us stay out of it. Thats what they want anyway !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

War is pointless because their is no need for endless slaughter. However, because of our human condition and inability to control our own population, it will continue and is essential to not only human life but all life on earth. So, I would not come out and say it has no function.

I do. We've had wars before - haven't we learned anything?
We're in a new millennium - it would be intelligent to settle
things with ideas & communication.
War is throwing us back into the dark ages - it's 2006, it's
hard for me to believe that someone hasn't come up with a
better way to solve differences, other than by taking lives.
I mean, we've discovered a vaccine for cervical cancer &
gone to Mars, for crying out loud.

many thinks that war is pointless...but war is important if you are being oppressed by others or you are being threatened by other forces...war also stimulates the economy by using a lot of resources and money...

I guess then you'd like Germany to have won world war 2,and the US to surrender to the terrorists now?

War isn't pointless. It has shaped this world since it has begun.

Here is a famous saying.."Why do we kill people, who kill people, to show killing people is wrong?" There is NO reason that we are in Iraq right now. (Well, good one anyway)
