Does violence solve problems over land , resources ,and people of different faiths .?

Question

Since rational people would say that violence is not the answer to the problem , then please define the causes of violence and its faithful adherents to this flawed philosophy .
By killing the father or mother of the child who has been taught he must some day be ready to defend his faith and nation from those who would seek to destroy it what have you accomplished . Violence will never be the answer so why do we continue to pursue such irrational policies .
Now consider that people have been taught that the land and everything on it belongs to the man or government that can control what happens on it . That the control comes by programing fear into the minds of those people who must work the land for the benefit of the leaders and that they must insure the care of these people to a limited extent not to reduce the profits gained from their labors . . That arming them and maintaining and securing the continued holdings is more important then anything else .
How can we overcome this

Answer 1

If terrorists want to kill us, I want them dead, no matter violently or not.

Answer 2

Violence is caused by greediness and people wanting more power. Sometimes people just can not be happy with what they have. Take Europe for example, they imperialized Africa and cut it up like a piece of cake to share as if the people living on that land didn't matter. For some reason people just did not care then and Europe just wanted the diamonds inside of Africa. People wondered why the Africans rebelled and there was so much violence. They were fighting for theyre own right. So theyres your answer on violence.

If your on a playground and a bully keeps calling you names...you keep trying to negotiate a peaceful end to the problem,after a couple of shoving matches he agrees to play nice and then the very next day he's back to calling you names and teasing you...you do this over and over for years...finally one day you look at him and say HEY...stop it or else....I don't have to put up with it anymore!...his buddy..a different bully sucker Punch's you for demanding decency out of the first bully...they run home to the first bully's house and point and laugh and tell you straight up they are gonna get you again...a couple days later they start beating up all your friends...what do you do?
Personal experience says you kick their butts all the way to the moon so you and your friends can play on the playground peacefully...sometimes you just have to fight...it's not the preferred method, but when all else fails you must be willing to stand up for yourself and your friends.

Peace activist Helen Caldicott said in 2003: "History is replete with wars, which is not so surprising. Men write the history books. They turn men who have killed thousands of people into victors and heroes."
Wars are almost always started for personal, emotional reasons. The Bush family had a personal vendetta against Saddam Hussein ever since Desert Storm when George H.W. Bush was criticized, humiliated and ridiculed for not 'finishing the job' and ousting Hussein at that time. Dick Cheney wanted all that OIL swimming underneath Iraq's sands. And, the giant U.S. military-industrial complex had to have a new 'war' to boost its sagging profits.
Seldom is a war fought for reasons of valor or honor. Most wars start because of jealousies, avarice, insecurities or other human frailties. When an insane leader suddenly finds himself in a position of power, he allows his insanity to go 'full bore' and he creates his own sense of reason. Of the five worst terrorists in these past 75 years, consider:
JOSEPH STALIN massacred 10 million of his countrymen and died peacefully in his sleep;
ADOLPH HITLER gassed 6 million Jews and chose to kill himself rather than face international justice;
IDI AMIN killed 2 million people in Uganda a retired in luxurious 'exile';
SADDAM HUSSEIN slaughtered more than a million Iraqis and was finally hanged by the 'new' puppet government installed by the Bush administration;
GEORGE W. BUSH has murdered 675,000 Iraqis and 3,500 U.S. soldiers without accepting any responsibility or assuming accountability for his actions.
Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and all 535 members of the most contemptible, incompetent, greedy, cowardly, arrogant, corrupt Republican-led U.S. Congress in history [that turned its back and allowed Bush to run ripshod over our Constitution to illegally attack another sovereign nation that in no way threatened, provoked or attacked the United States] deserve to be tried for high crimes against humanity in an international tribunal, and - if convicted - should HANG just as they HANGED Hussein. -RKO- 05/27/07
