"Reason for forever wars is to keep populations living in fear, a fearful population are a lot easier to manipulate.best thing to do is take no notice, and if peole stopped joining the forces they wouldnt have anyone to fight there wars because they wont put themselves or there own families on the front line, " Don't you think that conscription would come into affect if people stopped joining up. | |||

"Even if you have committed to a side – Israel's or the Palestinians' – you can and should stand back, every now and then, to look at the bigger picture. There are reasons the West is continuously waging wars, or fuelling them. Think of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, Gaza – all of them just in the last two decades. One is because there is lots of money to be made from war – or there is if you belong to the ruling class. There's money in the weapons and technology that make the fighting possible; money in the resources, largely hidden from view, that are being quietly fought over; and money in persuading you and me that we must tighten our belts to support the war effort. But there's another reason. If we weren't at war, if a new war wasn't always dominating the headlines and our passions, making us either outraged or fearful for the future, we would have the mental space and energy to think about other things. Such as how badly our societies are run, how the wealth gap just keeps growing, how incompetent our leaders seem, and how little is being done to solve the biggest problems facing us, like ecological collapse. If we weren't so convinced that we are the good guys, if we weren't so eager to cheerlead another war, we might start to understand that we are all the same, that we share one planet, that our future hangs on cooperation not conflagration. Which is precisely why we will always be at war." The "West is continually waging wars" You can only possibly believe this if you a truly ignorant to all the wars outside the "west" in the last 100 years. Yes the west is responsible for starting lots of wars mostly on the pretence of being the world's police men to do good when in reality its for ulterior motives but to make out the war mongering is unique to the west is just farcical | |||

"Wars are also created for power shift." Also to make money. Its very profitable for people at the top. | |||

Those & its many many of us on the surface of it would cheer & hail the genius who developed that magic pill. Others would say “Hang on, who the fck is feeding, housing & caring for all these people that only last week wouldn’t be here?” & a cynic might say the various cancer charities who between them have not cured one single cancer in over 100yrs might say “Fck, Best look for another goose!”.

"Wars are also created for power shift. Also to make money. Its very profitable for people at the top." Yes, it is about the money and the profit too. | |||
