Here are the lyrics of a song by the NY Hardcore band "Agnostic Front" called Peace, I think it might help you understand some of the concepts:
"A choice must be made!
In these times of war today
A choice must be made that no one wants to make
The result is inevitable
No one wins but a side must be taken
It's them or us, we don't want it this way
Death is certain and lives are at stake
Whose children must die? Whose buildings must fall?
No one can see eye to eye, all we see is hate
Our freedom fighters are their terrorists
Their heroes are our nemesis
Peace! Is! Not!
Peace is not an option!"

War can often be a profitable venture, reconstruction companies, arms companies, oil cartels etcetra do often come off very well. With notable exceptions of ww1 ww2 and the Korean war, you will find humans start wars for their own benefits and dont learn from mistakes and humans are naturally destructive. Iraq has been over oil and hegemony which history would predict will end in disaster.

There is a hell of alot more to it than that.
The people who are 'fighting' are our Armed Forces aswell.....they are being told what to do and where to go....does that make them dumb???
Like the first answer says......read a book...or two. You need to get some facts before you make comments like that.

Any excuse to have a war these days, especially if they are old rivals. Makes a change from the old religious chestnut i guess.

Wars are also fought over differing ideologies. It's still dumb..regardless of the justification.

1) To take oil from Iraq for the oil companies,
2) To make Bush more powerful,
3) To secure his second term and hopefully a Republican successor.
