why is there war?

Question

i mean, wouldnt it just be wasier if the world leaders all got togehter and talked it over or somthing? why do we have to kill innocent life just to get what we want when we could just as easily be disscussing how to make it equal? my teacher said this was my child innocence talking, but i find this to be a practical thought. so why is there war??

this is, indeed, a mans world ;-;

Answer 1

That is indeed your "child innocence" talking.

There are diplomats who talk between warring nations and between allies, as well as uninvolved nations who do a lot of talking.

No one wants war.

P.S. There is a spell check at the top of the dialog box.

Answer 2

War has been a part of human kind since the begining of time. Not only man fights but also animals, trees and plants fight. Do you fight with friends, parents and siblings? To see who is stronger, get what they want, and advance somehow. Equall does not work, we have cultural differences, social differences, economic differences, and religious differences. Don't get wrapped up in diplomacy, the UN is far over rated and it does not work. Its like you being told what to do by somebody younger than you. Will you always give in? Imagine a small nation of 400,000 having the same voting power as the US with over 300 million. Who has more power? I'm not saying that being a bully is good. No nation that cares as much as we do can afford financially to police the world although costly than the United States. Wars are important. Innocent life will be caught in the crossfire all the time. Do you have a job of some sort? Do you spare your hard earned money with others? That is equality.

Answer 3

traditionally wars were started for, religous, socio-political, rescources, more territory to become more wealthy, to become independent/overthrow a governing body, etc... etc...

if you look as to why this happens, no other method of what making you want to happen, happen is more effective then raw brutal force.

take for example the american revolution, the english were treating the colonies unjustly and were breaking the magna carta (there early version of a constituion) reapidly they sent represetitives to the King and yet nothing happened. only when they used force did they accomplish the goals they wanted to.

as to why you cant get world leaders to talk, once again its over religous/ideals the isrealies hate the arabs and the arabs hate the isrealis (both sides hold claim to the same area). the war theyve been fighting breaks down to two diffrent groups wanting the same thing and they dont want to compromise. naked force was tried twice. both wars the Isrealis fought off there enemies (most of the arab wolrd) in a number of days.

force/war goes hand in hand with accomplishing what you want to get done. also more advancment has come through the application of technolgy created during war then any other time. WWII brought us such things as jets, radar, sonar, microwaves and many more. i have a saying adversity breeds inovation. wars are horrible things and should never be undertaken lightly, througut history i can think of only one time of "peace" which was named the pax romana (200 years of realitive peace).

Answer 4

We want to get things that other people has like oil, land, food, access to ocean, spy over others etc. If we knew to make peace Jesus wouldn't come to us, Satan wants the war and conflict among us, we have to be wise in our acts and reject the war. when a child born without a soul everything will end, and a new life will start again without war.

Answer 5

There is no short answer, and there is no such thing as innocent life, except for maybe children, and despite popular belief very few of those are killed in war. There is war for many reasons, traditionally it is for territory, breathing room, disagreements, because we dislike each other, because someone is threatening you, because of disagreements that over thing's that are important to your survival, and lately for humanitarian reasons. There will never be world peace, people will always be greedy, and despite what everyone says, war is the only way to solve problem's absolutely, whether or not people like that, it is true. People will always desire power.

Answer 6

I agree! Me and my friends where just talking about this earlier. I think that most of the problem is that we have MEN presidents. If women where in charge, we would end all of the wars. I think that if we didn't have wars, and talked things out, then there would be peace, and no innocent person would die. I think the wars should stop, and we should get a female president!

Answer 7

Several reason!

One is to eliminate the growth of populating the world. Do a search on wars and why they were fought. Some were fought over land possession, which country owns this or that. Some are fought to gain land that is rich in oil.

Answer 8

If you want short answer, it's: power and money.
There were always wars and probably there'll always be.
Man would think that in this century, there would peace on the Earth and that people would be wiser. But some people just get more and more crazy.

Answer 9

It's in men's blood, and it's been like that ever since the beginning of bible times. Most wars are based on religious purposes or any other kinds of beliefs of things.

Answer 10

People will never get along with each other. Srry to say but that's just the way it is.
