From the beginning of time, men have fought each other for money, power and many more reasons. However, war between men should not have any justification at all because war does not bring any benefits to us but destruction. The bottom line is, war kills many lives and religious of all society never condones such murderous act.
The outbreak of war is the beginning of infinite tragedies. People involved in wars will lose their homes, friends and loved ones. We see soldiers trained to be merciless and cruel in order to obtain victory. Although is it really victorious for a country to win a war when millions and millions of lives are being sacrificed aimlessly.
Through the pages of history, we get to wishes the damage of war towards human civilization. We may be living in a modernized world, yet every time there is a war, we degenerate a few centuries back. This is due to the reconstruction work needed to build the society that has been afflicted by war.
Most of the war began because of the most selfish reason one can think of. Take the war in Darfur for instance. Innocent people are being slaughtered for the control of land and diamond mines. Even neighboring countries helped subsidized the war by supplying weapons and soldiers just because they can gain some profit from the war. Such senseless act must be condemned by the world instead of keeping mum about it.
Wars are often associated with dictators. People with moral decay like Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein, George W.Bush and so on are just few of the many war criminals who believe that starting a war can help them achieve political agendas. In fact, some of these war criminals also profited tremendously from playing war games. Therefore, we should ask ourselves is it really worth to support dictators in the pursuit of their personal wealth and glory?
Simply put, life is precious so we should not waste it on wars. The peace movement will be an on-going struggle for human kind as long as the-power-to-be or the people with power are those with selfish thoughts. Let us decide who should govern our future and may it be a future without war.
