O.K., so peace forces will be sent from many, many nations. Then they will be attacked. Syria and Iran will be framed for the attacks, and then it will be The Totalitarian One World United Nations Government against Syria and Iran. Of course leading the charge will be gun toting Uncle Sam.

Hello, Jan. Wink [;)] I know it sounds awful, but sometimes a war helps to set peace. If the USSR hadn't fought the agressor, Nazi Germany, in the WWII, what peace would have been set over the world then?

Do you think USSR has stopped the war? What is the reason of cold war? What is the reason of 2 million people killed in Cambodia? What is the reason of Vietnam War? What is the reason of the war of USSR against Afghanistan? Would have been less people killed if the *** hadnt been stopped by war? Cant you see, War just breeds war. Sometimes war is useful??? When???

Jan, I didn't say that peace might be set forever. Humans' characteristic is to forget most lessons of history. And so wars happen again and again. War - peace - war - peace - etc. A war may be useful if its lesson is learnt. IMHO, if Japan hadn't had Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it wouldn't have become such a country of high technologies as it is now. The war discouraged them for a long time from fighting but made develop their country. 

Every cloud has a silver lining.

But do you know what is the most interesting? History shows that wars are useless, but as long as humans don't want to understand it, they are fated to pass through wars again and again, till they learn this lesson. A stupid circle, isn't it?

Hope I haven't puzzled you with my point of view. Big Smile [:D] If yes, here it is in other words: a war may be useful only when its lesson is learnt, and the lesson of wars is that wars are useless.

IMMHO, Ruslana -- that war has only made Japan one of the most obedient states of the US.

You used the word "War" eight times. Do you know what have you done, you have attacked eight times at my heart.
Anyhow, I am taking notice one thing, it seems to me that, the only people is the people of Islamic world who have sentiments and able to feel the pain of those who are suffering. The remaing world is trying to pretend "it's a war" and as in war both are equal and it is being said by proving some historical statements, anyhow, what can be come from dead hearts nothing more than such statements.
