  I am shock to see that you felt this way.
  
  In a war, everybody will suffer including your family. Do you think this is funny??

You think too much!

I dont wanna have another war....Peace it good, keep it that way. There is no need to change what works.

In order to make peace more powerful, we should create world love, not world war.

A world war does not bring about an appreciation of peace...if it did, WWII would never have come about. Instead, war causes hard feelings between nations and their people and creates festering resentments that lead to more war, as the aftermath of WWI led to the rise of Hitler and WWII.

Your whole notion is intellectually and morally bankrupt.

Humans are too greedy.. So a war will bring an end to homosapiens.. It will be extinct.. Wow.. And that is what i'm sayin about.. Let my dear animals and plants live peacefully.. Don't worry for humans.. They still have either heaven or hell.

  No they don't, both are figments of the imaginations of certain religious groups.
  
  Nihilism is immature, self-centered, and self-indulgent. It is also supremely arrogant for one person to presume that he, alone, has the ability to decide the proper fate of an entire species.
  
  Perhaps it is time for you to either grow up or get a life and stop trolling...or both.

This is a truly dreadful topic. I cannot belive that there are people who would EVER support another world war when they can see the dreadful devastation that the last two caused
I truly cannot believe that someone could make such a terrible statement that they wish for a third because they are bored with peace!

What kind of question is this? What wants a third world war? Most of the sane people of the world loathe this idea.

Do you want it to start between India and Pakistan? How do you think this will establish "peace"? Please explain.

[reply]

I'll expand upon my answer of "no" a bit since things are moving slow today.

No - absolutely not. As the father of one son with another on the way, I'm haunted by the saying "when's the worst time to have a son? 18 years before a war."

If you actually want a world war, I can only guess that you are living in a fantasy world in your mother's basement, surrounded by comic books and anime heroins.

I might ask - what do you know of war? What wars have you studied extensively?

Instead I think it's easier to simply state:

"Be careful what you wish for."

  Anyone who *wants* war needs therapy, to say the least.

  I agree with the fact that no one should *want* war -- ever.
  
  But there is also a mistaken assumption [in this thread, apparently] that we are in a present state of peace.
  
  Just to be devil's advocate (don't you just love that?)...
  
  Russia is rolling over Georgia right now. What if they were to attack all the former Soviet republics in such a systematic fashion? Would it be better to let it happen, or would the EU/US need to take action? In terms of India/Pakistan/Afghanistan/Iran -- isn't the current instability and nuclear status of this region cause for concern? At what point would the rest of the world be in further danger because of it?
  
  I'm no hawk, by any stretch. But I am a realist. To say, "no thanks, peace is just great with me... we'll have another helping of peace, please" is to ignore the reality of what is going on in the world. The people who are being killed right now are no less human than those of us living in industrialized countries with access to the internet... so we should be very cautious about the assumption that the world is currently so peaceful.

  Midwest Mom - I agree with you. Just because these conflicts are happening on the other side of the world, doesn't mean they aren't happening. People are still dying.

  Oh no doubt - to everything, turn, turn, turn.
  
  My take on that would be that in such situations (such as increased offensive action by the Russian military against nato allies/potential nato allies, or in the case of Saddam vs. Kuwait in '91, or the German invasion of Poland in '39) that war may well be "necessary" yet certainly not "desired" or "wanted." At least it shouldn't be.

Why would anyone WANT a war? I have studied past wars extensively (being a history buff and all) and I can say that I would NEVER want to experience war firsthand and the horrors that go along with it. War is not glorious.

This question actually hits home for me. Just this week, our community here in Boise, Idaho had a tragic event happen. A fire destroyed 10 homes and damaged 9 others, killing one person. This person was a professor at Boise State and a two-time survivor of cancer.

www.ktvb.com/news/localnews/stories/ktvbn-aug2708-fire_aftermath.19c39685.h...

If this amount of destruction was caused by by people with bombs and the intent of killing people, I couldn't imagine that.

This is the nuttiest peice of junk! It takes nuts to think war would solve anything. Watch a Disney movie, listen to the Circle of Life by Elton John, and stop watching TV.

Katanarama

actually, war has solved AT LEAST 95% of all human conflicts. Would we have been able to talk Hitler into stoppijng the Holocaust? NO.

The only wars I havewnt agreed with are the Iraq and Vietnam wars. I agree with all "just" wars [Revolutoinary, WW2, etc], but not a pointless and unwinnable one.

  no one's saying that hitler could've been negotiated into inaction (Nevile C. tried, and failed) - but to "want" war is deeply troubling. It means you desire it. It means you'd prefer war over other alternatives.
  
  We want resolution to problems. War is sometimes a necessary application to solve those problems, but it should never be the "desired" or "prefered" path to solution.
  
  We may be splitting hairs here, but I don't think anyone is making the case that all war is unjust or anything like that - just saying it shouldn't be desired (i.e. "wanted").

  Katanarama
  
  yeah its not wanted, but it is required most of the time.
  
  the only reason that i would want a war similar to WW2 is to bring the country together in a time of need to defeat a threatening enemy. an entire nation uniting like it did in '41-'45 might never happen again

  Adolf Hitler wanted a war, he started a war and the end result was the almost total destruction of Germany and a very large part of Europe. And some 50 million people dead, give or take a few.
  I am a descendant of parents who barely survived Hitler's war. To ask for 'who wants war and if not, why' is completely insane. Another deranged kid loose in cyber space.

There's a book our recently...written by a member of PNAC (the ones who said America "needed" another Pearl Harbour to effect regime change and to fight terrorism)...the book is called WW IV or World War Four.

The author's contention is that the Cold War already represents WW III and that the current 'war on terror' is actually our fourth world war.

Do I want a 3rd World war? No
Am I ready for one? yes...I'm fully prepared for when a war occurs. Hopefully I will hurry up and become an important scientist, then the government would want to store me in a supersafe bunker cause they can't have the smartest people in America dying in some war. I will be just like in the movies, I also have excellent fight skills I learned while playing video games, so I'm fully prepared to be able to shoot guns and fight off evil soldiers.

...or we can have a fraternity of assassins and decide who dies using a loom haha. -sorry, i just watched that movie the other day lol.

but on a serious note, even though I wouldn't want a war to happen, i know it will happen someday. sadly! and it could most possibly end up nuclear if it doesnt stop.

army's around the world have been way advanced by now. technology and weapons have become better. there would possibly be very few survivors if any at all! :S.

oh well, i'd rather fight in one than die at home. i'd die for a cause than die in hopes of being alive.

A question posed by somebody clearly has no experience of concept of what war entails. ref: reply "i want it so that peace wil b more powerful..." is a rather puzzling unsubstantiated claim. Whilst the question has provoked me and the people above to comment above, you can assume that the comments are implicitly about the inanity of the poser rather than the question itself.

Plenty of people live for war. They want to show their warrior ethic. Prove themselves under fire. That being said,no a third world war would not be good. The possible unconventional weapons, biological, chemical, nuclear, electromagnetic, pharmacological and other are truly terrifying.

Any social conscious person would never want 3rd world war.A few greedy(on power,religion etc) persons are the real cause for all these troubles.

When my princess sensico is fully ready ,why should I bother?
her eyes alone can destroy the largest army of the world in seconds.She has more weapons more dangerous than the nuclear.Dosox, would you agree with me?

This subprime crisis is worse than a war. The emotional impact from job loss, the financial impact from recession already makes so many countries poor. Maybe the rich countries in Middle East are ready to launch "acquisition" war soon and soak up all the assets.
