First off, where did we get the idea that democracy is the end all and be all of all political systems? It just won't work in some countries. Second, why aren't we bringing democracy to places that could really use it, like in Africa. We won't help Sudan or Rwanda because they don't have anything we want (*cough* oil *cough*).

What I don't get, and it's probably just how my brain is wired, is how people can be so accepting of leaders to such a degree that they'll let them boss them around and control their every move. I don't get why people aren't like "no, I'm not going to go fight a war for you" or "no, you're not going to be our dictator, shut up". It probably has something to do with me having a "problem" with authority (more like thinking everyone should be treated equally and be respected and not putting up with having myself or others treated like crap).

But, until people stop being such idiotic sheep, war will continue to be a necessary evil.

Are there any Plimates who are complete pacifists?NY'er, veteran, conscientious objector. I prefer to take any other route outside of war especially when that war is not on home soil but I cannot see having let WWII continue and millions more people be annihilated without outside parties stepping in, so as much as I abhor war, there are times when it's just necessary.

Where do we on Plime stand on war? Is it totally good? Totally bad? Or is it a mixed-bag?
If you think it's necessary sometimes, what conditions need to be present for it to be necessary?
In a perfect world of butterflies and sunshine, war would never need to happen. I believe it is a terrible thing, but sometimes it is necessary.

Starting a war because a man was shot and allowing it to escalate into a global battle because of alliances and pacts is not really necessary. Starting a war for control of oil supplies is not necessary, either.

Starting a war because another nation/leader is invading neighbouring countries and systematically exterminating a minority is necessary. We can't always turn the other cheek.

Two of my cousins served as Peacekeepers in both Rwanda and Bosnia, and I am supportive of any participation in a conflict that strives to peacefully resolve the situation.

I find it hard to understand why some people are so hell-bent on killing each other ( ex. The Middle East), but if one is raised to live with such immense hatred I suppose these actions seem logical.]]><![CDATA[donteatpoop @ 1/13/2008 11:33:04 AM]]>176937
