    Violence is what has driven civilization. without the urge to kill Humans would still be living in caves eating asparagas.

You have to fight to survive, some people in this country just have no f*cking idea what we've had to do so we can live the way we are right now. Now we and the world are at a point where our borders are pretty much set, the global economy has ended in my opinion large scale superpower war. War is terrible, but sometimes you have to do it. Watch the movie 300, it's a terrific example.

That war was necessary. But in the modern day war is unecessary. We didn't need to start a war with Iraq. We stared a war in Iraq and joined another that's been going on for thousands of years. Now we're stuck in it. The USA does not need to go to war. We were doing fine as it was - we have good relationships with most countries so we're fine and there was nobody who was going to start war with us. So there is no point of war anymore excepte an excuse to kill thousands of people.

We wanted what? Like 20 people? Now we've got ourselves in a huge war and we've already got the main people we wanted. There was no reason for the war.

Well I'm not going to argue with you about it since you're a guy who pays attention and probably knows what the other side of the argument is even if you don't agree so you know what I'd say.

    War is nessicary sometimes. Afghanistan is one of those incidents. The US had to make a statement after what happened, if we didn't it would be open season on the US; every terrorist organization from Al Quida to CELDS would relentlessly attack this country and its interest. The War on Terror also isn't just in Afghanistan, there has also been operations in The Phillippines, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Ereteria, Somalia, Jordan, Lebonon, Djibouti, and other regions. This is a war which was needed 30 years ago when this sh*t actually started, but all the nations who were being attacked didn't or wouldn't stand up and now most of those countries are in deep sh*t. The Reason countries like Germany, France and Russia didn't want to be involved in Iraq isn't because of some moral high ground, its because those countries all have a plethera of terrorist already inside their border.Terrorist, and despots are nothing more than Bullies in a large scale. If you stand up to a bully they will usually back off, if you don't they will continue. War is as nessicary today as it ever has been.
