So many wars have passed, the same lessons are always learnt " wars should be avoided".
This message has sunken in to so many people across the globe. However, it has fallen on deaf ears on those who have the power to stop the war. America has been involved in almost all of these wars. Its reason? To fight communism and terrorists. But what have these wars accomplished? The death of many people around the globe? The infuriation of Muslims around the world? Before they go to war in the name of fighting terrorism, these congressmen should ask themselves - "Is it worth it?" "What are the alternatives?" Conquering these countries does not actually stop terrorism, it only makes matters worst!

The reason for the war is that the the ruler wants to extend their country's territory. They want to grab the resources from other countries. Huamn being never satisfy. Thay get one land and they will want more. Hitler is one example. Hence, even though war brings pain and death, even though it does no good, it still occurs. War is the most effective way to make other countries to obey to you. That's why war can't be prevented. it is just like when two man is discussing some matters but they can't make a agreement through negotiation, they will fight and the loser obey to the winner.
