Is War Inevitable?
2 opinions (Yes war can be Inevitable)
Yes. First stop dehumanizing the enemy. Stop glorifying warriors. Stop the simplistic false narrative of totaling good vs. evil and that when we kill we're good but when the enemy kills they're evil.Stop imposing conditions for peace talks. Stop assuming we're rational but the enemy is not. Though we like to say war is hell and that we try to avoid war-in reality we make heroes out of warriors thereby glorifying war. All these memorials to soldiers of war lend cache to the narrative that war is a noble en-devour-if you're one of us. Perhaps we need memorials to the victims of all these wars-civilians.We need more stories of civilians deaths-and less of "heroes" accomplishments.Stop portraying terrorism as inhuman and terrorists as not worthy of any human consideration. -- Rose-Ellen Caminer

As long as humans insist on dividing themselves along religious lines and proclaiming vast theological differences -often over tiny disagreements of interpretation- they will feel the need to fight and either impose their will on others or defend against perceived incursions on their freedoms. How can we even dream of the end of war when religions fight among themselves with such violence? -- Nat Benchley

War is clearly NOT inevitable, as Paul Chappell explains in his three books. Wars benefit the few at the expense of the many; wars can be avoided by mutual understanding and a willingness to address each others' needs; wars reflect a win-lose mindset, whereas the obvious interdependence of modern life demonstrates that there is no US/THEM; we're all in it together, so we need a win/win approach. Moreover, modern wars always end with negotiated settlements. If we don't have an us vs. them mentality, we can skip the bloodshed and begin with negotiation. Since the majority of people don't benefit from war, we can become the force that advocates negotiation and rejects war. -- Leslee Goodman

War is not inevitable, it is a decision. When governments or groups push moral boundaries and suffocate people's rights and freedoms, war can become an answer to right the wrongs committed, however that does not make ear inevitable. The alternative to war is better communication and the ability to understand human rights.

“It always seems impossible, until it is done.” -Nelson Mandela
"If you're walking down the right path and you're willing to keep walking, eventually you'll make progress." -Barack Obama
War is inevitable, I believe a conflict can be solved without violence. Talking things out is better then using aggression, and staying neutral. Switzerland is land that has yet to be in apart of a war, they maintained neutral during world war one. War is an immature action because both sides have to suffer in some kind way. Only the world can solve a Big problem if everybody contributes. With the right leaders and the right attitude we can proceed to a better world with no wars.
The outcome of a war is nothing but wrong. War itself is wrong to begin with because the outcome of it is pride and deaths. The minds of a soldiers doesn't come back the same, families suffer from a lost loved one, sometimes people remain missing. If pride and wealth can be evenly balanced and the faith anything is possible. Little changes make a big difference.
