If we all got together as friends I mean the whole world. We could move all the people from one Country and let all those that want to fight with each other go there to fight.

From the beginning of mankind, we have always been fighting each other. It started out with getting food and shelter. Then moved on to getting the best mate. Thousands of years later we were still fighting, for extra land, extra wealth, a better living. Then came along religion. Then we fought against each other as to who had the best religion. We now have a mix of the whole lot!
We also have a criminal fighting the police, a government fighting another because they don't agree, I could go on for hours. The bottom line is this, we should all live in peace as a global community, but until we learn to respect other peoples views, and live along side them, I'm afraid world peace is far away.
I do like your question, and let's hope that some high authority's read your answers, to let them know what we think, the ordinary man and women in the street. You never know, it may bring world peace a step closer.

pls ruminate on this a lot
everyone will agree that taking 99% off 99% and giving it to 1% will increase fighting 1000fold
we have such extreme injustice
therefore we all know [ whether we realise it yet or not] that the injustice causes the fighting
[and that makes sense, because money is a universal good, good for most goods - the theft of earnings is the theft of life and a million pleasures and a fairshare of political power]
with justice, there is enough for plenty for everyone - US$75,000 per family working average hard
ie, food, water, health care, education, house, holidays, for everyone
as far down as happiness and everything good go with injustice, that is how high happiness etc go with justice
so there is already a universal will to justice
so clarify people's thinking - pound away at this thought - repeat repeat - till everyone is clear - then, where there is a clarified will, there is a clear simple easy way
all it needs is limitation of fortunes to the just earnable maximum, and spreading the overpay back around among the 99% underpaid - every family will get another US$70,000 a year - overpower [tyranny, corruption] will be disempowered, freedom and democracy established, poverty abolished, education and markets 10fold, nuclear winter avoided
obviously taking 99% off 99% will be very bad - so reversing that action will be very good - everyone loves good, right? - and if anyone doesnt like all the good things, well, hopefully they are very few
can anyone argue that taking 99% off 99% would be good? - no - so can anyone argue that reversing the taking of 99% off 99% would be bad? - no - so everyone must agree, so there is unanimity, so there is no difficulty about doing it, no opposition to doing it, no struggle or conflict
see my other answers for more rare good sense

You can't do that, no matter how much you try..It's always somebody that wil not be pleased.. We don't get along with eachother is because of our personalities, very different..You can't do the same stuff for ALL the people.They want different things, they have choices, and you can't live in peace because that means to have the same way of thinking, all the people, and you will not see that in this life..And think about, if everything is beautiful, happiness, everybody loves everyone, where is the sparkling of life, to feel like you are alive, you can't have a good fight with anybody, all that you can hear is " i love you" and all you can see are hugs and kisses...It will so boring...

you should examine your own question its not a very peaceful solution, to segregate friends from foe is ridiculous. the only way forward for any sort of peace is to understand ones enemy solve differences and move on. eventually through education,consideration, spreading the worlds wealth around and acceptances of others ways of life, peace might happen.
others points to think about:
1/ sometimes you have to fight for peace e.g. WW2 , if the allies did not fight the axis power we would now be conversing in a different language.
2/ in everyone there is a good and bad side. most people try to be good but they are times.....
peace is a wonderful idea but it has to be for everyone. if any of this makes sense, you can start improving the world by opening you mind.
yours sincerely
friend

People have wrong system for personal economy of energy.Such existing system includes only person not the Whole.This situation will last at least next few thousand years.In meantime you should learn to move like serpent, twist and turn escaping troubles, traps,pits.You can't change the World.If you insist it will be a trap for you. The life is nice but you must learn to protect yourself. Maybe Alfred Adler with his What Life Could Mean to You can show you the direction.Maybe.Maybe it is not written for you.

I like the idea of moving all the fighters together. What about doing it for football hooligans, after the match they could all be let onto the field form up into sides and knock seven bells out of each other, it would be better than some of the matches I've seen.

No, we shouldn't. The people who wanted to fight would follow those who didn't and try to rule over them figuring they would have no resistance from a bunch of pacifists. If you could shut off the human need for power over others like a light switch, then sure let's try your plan.

If we let all those that want to fight with each other go and do so, then we're not all living together in peace, dumbass.

Nice idea, but it overlooks human greed. War is normally about greed or the consequences of greed.
You can afford a computer. Would you be prepared to go without a computer so a child in Ghana can eat? If not, he might come and ask you why.

This is a great idea. Can we build a dome around it to keep the troublemakers in? They can fight away to their heart's content and the rest of us can get on with living our peaceful lives.
