Is it necessary to make wars?

A while back someone asked, "Why can't we attain world peace"?
I simply replied, "A better question would be: Why SHOULD we attain world peace"?

I do not prescribe to the notion that mankind's conflicts, particularly that international pastime we call 'War', are all that deleterious to the human condition.

That said, many people condemn acts of war and, although I understand the motives behind such condemnations, - they are not at all based in sound reason but, rather, are based upon emotions which have been conditioned by adherence to a moral construct, - and all moral phenomena is a matter of PERCEPTION.

If you consider, just for an example, how wars have advanced the medical sciences then one can field a sound argument that, given the thousands of people that benefit from war-born medical advances EVERY SINGLE DAY, - the math becomes pretty simple; war has been quite beneficial for the advancement of mankind.

In his book THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA, Nietzsche wrote:
---..." You should love peace as a means to new wars. And the short peace more than the long."...
" War and courage have done more great things than charity. Not your pity but your bravery has saved the unfortunate up to now."...---

I agree with his assertion...

ya i guess but i wish it wasnt
y cant the world be in peace for once?? its always war,war,war kill,kill,kill!!!!!!!!! we r tired of hearing people dying on the news because of bombs and other thing like that

It may be necessary to fight, but it is never necessary to make wars.
Wars are different from fighting in that it is a kind of game with legal consequences. You must abide by certain rules in war or you will face penalties. Of course, the more you cheat, the better chance you have to win the war.

One day all wars will be abolished, not because of social progress, but because it will be too expensive politically and economically (such as the case with US & Russia -- it would be political suicide for any politician to on either side to conduct a direct war with the other.) There will be new kinds of fighting to take its place, and wars will be considered primitive and childish, such as duels are today.

Monster,
Since you've asked this question under the philosophy heading, I would say the answer is no. I also believe a day will come (not in my grand children's lifetime of course) when war (as currently defined by killing people) may become obsolete. Most historians agree that war is a logical conclusion That happens when diplomacy fails. Sadly, I believe one of the prevalent factors to deterrence will be cost, as opposed to any great epiphany. Modern war usually occurs when two or more entities can't mutually agree on a solution to a problem.
Some say that war is supposed to be so horrible that mankind will attempt to avoid it at all costs. Yet, for the last 100 years, there has always been war, somewhere on the planet.
However, war will one day become obsolete when the price of waging one is too high for the combatants to endure. Whether it be due to sophisticated weaponry that guarantees total or mutual destruction, or whether war evolves into another medium, such as economical sabotage it will change. Just as sure as warring has evolved from the days of hand-to-hand combat using swords.

no,its not necessary.its nomadic,and the ppl who r physically strong get their way.its illogical and backdated

Yes it is. As Machiavelli says wars can't be avoided in his book "The Prince." A country that strives for peace and refuses to fight is left vulnerable.

Not always, but when by no other means is it possible, yes.
Sometimes war is how we get to peace.

Yes.

Yes it is. Thats the only way to keep people in their proper place.

strange!!!! you didn't know?????
