Yes wars are useless because there should have never been any hatred in the first place.

and WHERE exactly has that got us? into mutliple useless wars that the only thing accomplished is people dying? to invent guns which are used to kill innocent and helpless animals nand humans? to create bombs that are used to kill innocent humans and start wars?

wow. i can REALLY sww where intelligence took us to. killing. how barbaric and in-human.

Funny thing is you are arguing about how our intelligence is bad from a computer. If you feel so strongly about that, then ditch all technology and go naked into the wild and live your entire life there.

no. im blaming the people who INVENTED the weapons. if men had never invented leathal gas chambers or guns MILLIONS of people would still be alive.

Then why are you hating on human intelligence? It created such wonders for us and it can help us save the environment.

What I don't like is that fact that people DO hunt to keep the animal populations down. What about our population? It's larger than most animals!

Our version of population control is wars. To be honest the reason we're bad for the environment is because while most animals kill each other when their is to little room for them all, we've learned how to build up and condense our populations. If we had more wars populations would decrease, but I pray that no one would actually condone action based off this fact.

I condone wars for the people stupid enough to fight them. If they choose to fight then they choose not to survive. Yes, my main reason is that fact. So what? The world is vastly over populated. Much more and we'll suffocate ourselves!

Please don't cut down our troops, they're not stupid. They fight to protect our life and ask for only a small paycheck in return. They're really quite selfless.

They aren't protecting me or my life. I see no threat to me. They are helping other nations above ourselves. Also many are stupid enough to believe the propaganda this country puts out for the military.

We can't help having wars it's an instinctual thing almost all mammals have some form of it. Now days wars are fought over the stupidest reasons. It used to be purely for territorial gain. The purpose for war has been lost. People think that we've risen above that 'senseless' meaning for war, but we still fight rather then just keeping things the way it works for the rest of planet we have to drag all these BS reasons into it.

Animals do not have wars because injury is such a problem for them. Most times fighting is a last resort.

As for the military, it's not some evil beast that likes to kill and consume. The military is just a tool of the politicians. A military has one purpose, to protect the people of it's nation. Politicians unfortunately wield it as a form of intimidation. Militaries aren't bad, governments are bad. And as for protecting you, are there suicide bombers prowling your neighborhood? Are you under the constant threat of being raped by the Janjaweep? Are you treated as a slave? No. You wanna know why? Because there was a good person out there who gave up their life so you can enjoy everything you have. Don't be an ignorant close minded self-centered brat. Grow up and realize that the military deserves everyones respect.

What I mean by war in the animal kingdom is that they fight over territory. Which Is what we used to do. It was the original 'war'

Really it's not some evil beast?????? I guess I was right when I knew that then. I know exactly what a military is and what it job; don't think that I don't know just because I don't think we should fight wars over BS reasons. I know that good people have given their life for my safety, but right now I don't think they are. I'm sorry that you think that I'm a jackass because I don't support what the government is making the military do, and that people that think right now soldiers are protecting me from harm are wrong. That's what I believe, and last I checked thinking someone is a brat because their opinion is different is ignorant and close minded not the other way around.

PS. Wow. Name calling. You're right I'm the one whom needs to grow up.

People enough with the name calling.



We did the right thing by going into Afghanistan but when we got into Iraq, the Taliban came back like a rodent problem.


I agree with presidential candidate Ron Paul, that we should not intervene (no clue if I spelled that right) with other nations unless its really necessary. We have troops in Germany, Japan, the Caribbean, we have troops doing anti drug operations in the South Pacific, we are still in a cease fire with North Korea that has been going on for about 50 years, we have them in Afghanistan, and now we are fighting this stupid war in Iraq. If we keep doing this we are not gonna end up stretching our army too thin and bankruptcy will probably follow that.
This is my set. Do not use this without my permission.

Oh, you do support the military *awkward turtle*

Well, I guess everyone can tell I wrote that after 12...and Chem homework. Sorry, looks like I snapped in one of my delusional moments! College is kind of messing with my mind.

As for my real opinion, yeah the military isn't doing what we want it to do, because it's being told by the government what to do. You can support the troops but not the politicians! Sorry for posting while sleep deprived!

no technology is killing our environment. oil company factories are pouring greenhouse gases into the air as are our cars and planes and such. os technology is the whole cause of global warming
