    I wish for there to be no good reason to make war ever again.

    “And for absolutely no reason, war has been declared.”

      Usually the reason for war are,

      Money (stupid because no war made profit for any of the participants)

      Power

      More power

      Resources

      More resources

      Because the president is a stupid idiot

        Well, sure, war is rarely profitable for the participants, but it’s very often profitable for the giant corporations in charge of supplying the weapons and other gear, and who lobby heavily to ensure the people who are willing to make up a reason to go to war are also the ones who get to decide whether to go to war. War is nothing more than another corporate profit push at the expense of the populace.
