Peace is a tall order. There must be peace in the home, peace it the neighborhood, peace in the cities and towns, peace in the states, peace in the countries and maybe then there will be peace on earth. Our work is cut out for us.
Blaming relibion is stupid. Blame religious zealotry but not faith itself. There are plenty of Socialist/Communist countries that are anti-religious and have caused all kinds of violence and death. Cant' blame religion for that.

Human nature. People will never be perfect beings, and it is these imperfections, these character flaws inherent in every human that prevent peace from being anything but an idealistic dream.
As long as there is pride, envy, greed, anger, hunger for power, hunger for supremacy, etc, etc, there will be no peace.
Therefore, as long as there are more than 2 human beings living, there will not be peace.

Can the middle east afford peace? Their resources are quite limited and peace allows for population growth. Without birth control, war is the only way to check the population. a very cold hard reality.

There can't be peace because then there would be no news for CNN to report. Actually people are unable to understand what peace is. I guess they want to fight and of course, say "We are number 1".

This question was asked a lot. The reason is that the lobbyists and other interest groups such as arms corporations have many benefits from wars. Each one of them has a different concentration. These parties shape the foreign policy strongly, which makes the US always gets into the wars. Unfortunately the simple person pays the price.

Because "International Law" and "Proportioned Responses" prevent conflicts from being decided decisively leaving partial-victors and accomodated-malefactors locked in a stalemate of low level violence.

Because you will always have leaders that believe they should rule the world single-handedly.
