War is Fun

War is Fun

In all the hand wringing social commentary about the state of affairs in the world today many authors lament the horrors of war and struggle to understand HOW this could possibly happen, but nobody seems to address the reason why war exists in the first place:

War is Fun

The reason that war is started, war is studied, and why war is continued is simple:

War is Fun

There is no other reason.  The people and powers that promote Warfare have two motivations Fun and Profit.  They expect to make money and this is the quickest and most enjoyable way to accomplish those two objectives.

War is Fun

Men enjoy fighting.  Men enjoy being victorious.  Men like the thrill of victory.  There is nothing on Earth as fun and satisfying as kicking ass and taking over, if you are a fighter.  Just ask the gang bangers and street fighters WHY they are involved in that lifestyle: IT IS FUN.

War is Fun

We will never have Peace on Earth unless we find another way to have fun. Something besides sports and competition and victory to prove that you have personal worth is what is necessary.  Perhaps a spiritual revolution of intellectual awareness and empathetic feeling will help more people understand the true nature of life and War.  But until that time, we will continue to have War.  Everybody knows this, but nobody talks about it.

War is Fun

When do we start?  Are you ready to go?  Are you ready to Win?   Are you ready for victory?  Do you want to be a hero?  Let's get going.

War is Fun
