'War Is Peace. Freedom Is Slavery. Ignorance Is Strength. '
George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949)

Wars since alone time go always occur because humans always want and expand power. I don't know the war can stop or not. Because people who want power and are greedy will always exist. The only way to make peace is working together to make all nations more advanced, not betraying each other, and tolerance. Although I think it's a bit difficult.

Anger or violence is a part of human nature. Though for some, it might have been locked down below but, just like we have in volcanoes, there is a tendency of an eruption some day.
The fact that, we could get angry at some occurrences or happenings in our lives simply means that, we could raise arms against one another or nation against nation some day.
We could only hope to avoid but, it’s just something that happens.

War can never stop existing but it can be reduced to the bare minimum because as civilization continue to grow government has started realizing that there's no benefits from killing ourselves just because of war that dialoguing can easily resolved. War is part of human begin exitance as it has been around for a very long time.

As an advance form of human existence we have to be different. This is the reason I dislike Vladimir Putin for putting Ukraine through the situation they're going through now. He didn't have to go to world with them, he should have been the bigger person and not invaded Ukraine. Ukraine are also at fault but they both should have found a war to resolved their conflict without putting their innocent citizens that consist of young boys and girls at risk of getting hit by missiles and guns. We can reduced the wars by dialoguing and resolved whatever conflict any two or more nations are facing. We have some evil business man that invest heavily in firearms and they're those secretly sponsoring this wars going on in different countries. The government need to find this people and put an end to their betrayal to humanity. We should be able to live in peace and harmony without war.

War is profitable because at the end of it all you will discover there's peace but those that are paying the price will suffer for it and lost their live including the innocent ones, this makes it from another perspective that war is not also being profitable enough since it involves the lost of lives, but we ca also stop all these causes if we can learn how to live at peace with one another and being law abiding, we can only know the beginning of war but the ugly end remains unknown to all.

Weapons trading will never end because the countries that are capable of doing these things believe that someone out there is developing some weapons of mass destruction to conquer their land someday, and to counter these speculations, they are now non-stop researching to create more powerful weapons than ever before, and you cannot ignore that scenario because it has been happened before when powerful country mercilessly conquering other nations because of their greed like for example German and Japan way back 10s of years ago.

Sadly war is profitable & many countries value lives of soldiers & citizens less than money. Life would be so much better if there was no conflict or war but I don’t know if we’ll ever get a united world. Some people & governments are too power & money hungry.

One way to lessen the likelihood of future wars, as I’m sure many of you know is a silent protest, but bitcoin. As they say, fix the money, fix the world.

You are absolutely correct. In my country, you can't do anything but sit down and watch people suffer and die because of the decision of one or a few men. The citizens are not allowed to vote if they want war or not. Putin never consulted his people that he is going to war because he has the power as the president to declare a special operation. Look at the war in Sudan, just because of a power tussle between two greedy men the nation has entered a civil war. Generals Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and Mohamed Hamdan “Hemedti” Dagalo are two power-drunk fools that don't care about the lives of their people because they want to gain military and political power. They are not like true African leaders that are selfless like Nelson Mandela and Goodluck Jonathan that had the interest of the citizens at heart. The war has killed hundreds, wounded more, and displaced thousands just because of two men's ambition.

In most countries of Africa, you can't protest against government policies. If you protest in my country you can be harassed, beaten, imprisoned, or even killed by the government and nothing will happen. It happened during the End Sars when many protesting youths were murdered by the army and the police and to date nobody has been indicted or persecuted.

We have the war among ourselves. If I am not mistaken, I can't recall again, I have said this before, "war only end when another war begins". War is not the absent of Peace but is the state of ignoring one another to have peace. If you want to count conflicts for a day, you will count more than 100 wars every day in the world. After the break out of the Russia and Ukraine war, I have heard plenty wars in the world. Talibans, Pakistans, Afghanistans a lot to mention. Even in my country, Boko Haram to Militia of the Niger Delta and the Eastern Security Network (ESN) etc. War is within us.
The only time when will have peace in the whole world is when ruling class press our faces in the mud without dead. Please that is figuratively, and it means, when they kill us all and bury ours. Definitely when one died has peace because he would not see the things in this world again.
War in one place affect another area. That was why a poet said, "we are all casualties of war". From the creation of the world war has not ended in the life of human. Human beings face one problem to another. When you think that you have solved one problem, another problem just emerged. And that is why people die untimely because the problems and challenges they face in the world. Peace comes from the peace of mind. And that is all. Once you have peace of mind then everything is fine with you.

We often talk more about the Russia and Ukraine war but we left alone the discussion we have concerning our own internal war with insurgency and political game players causing unrest in the society, as long as there's no peace irrespective of the settings there's war and people will not have every meas to remain in that settlement, some current challenges with internal crisis were left undone and we are more concerned about the global one, if we want to give peace, we must have one first.

The problem is; We cannot do anything as an Average Joe. World leaders choose to play games and we are spectators of their gameplay. Sometimes we are innocent victims who never support the war. No countries support each other without having any benefits. It seems those war will continue for ages.

Financial and technological wars are ongoing and will continue in the future. However, no harm of life occurs in this war. But when there is a war of arms, there will be great disaster. This arms war will never end because the countries that depend on the arms trade will always use new technologies to develop more deadly weapons and war is necessary to sustain that arms trade. I understand that this war will only end when the superpower countries reduce their dependence on the arms trade.

Can war ever end? There looks like a continuous believe that war will never sieze from this planet.
Since thousands of years before now, war had been the order of the day and till now, the world is still experiencing war which had been a means of reducing the world population.

The current war between Russia and Ukraine had been one of the wars that started like a play and till now, no peace dialogue had been conducted. It seems like the NATO are using Ukraine to test there weapons to know the effect and I still don't get it why the Ukrainians are not seeing it from the angle of settling with the Russian federation to bring the lose of lives to an halt.

Always people point at all kinds of things to make their conclusions. But conclusions about war on earth are never complete until people realize that God will bring peace through Jesus's return. Jesus will conquer all the armies of the earth that are unwilling to make peace.

Look at what will happen to the world and the kingdoms of the world. It's recorded in the book of Daniel in the Bible. An excerpt is below, but go to the link and read the whole thing.

Daniel 2:

Did you realize that 3rd world war already started?
It actually started over a year ago. The world is divided by two or three already. Some countries support Russia in private. They don't tell us that they support Russia. Some others support Ukraine. There is another group who watches it only. This is a cold war for all other countries except for Russia and Ukraine. Some other wars have been happening for decades! Let's hope everything will be OK at some point.

I will not forget these wars that destabilize the Middle East and Africa. Specifically, the war in Iraq and Libya destroyed some of the best economies in Africa and the Arab world. The most painful part of it was that the US and its allies lied about their hidden agenda for starting those wars. They said Iraq had weapons of mass destruction but nothing was found. The reason for invading Libya was just because of their hatred for Ghadaffi. Today these nations have not recovered from these wars and Libya has become a habitation of criminals and terrorists. I remember that many people from my country migrated to Libya when the land was peaceful because they had a sound economy.

Wars will never end because greed and the uncontrollable pursuit of power are in the DNA of the world powers. They will always cause war to enable them to test and sell their military hardware. They will always want to control the government and resources of other countries. And if the government of these nations refuses to abide by their dictates, these powerful nations will sponsor rebels to fight the government for power. These world powers will always fight among themselves in proxy wars so they will manipulate weak nations and push them to fight wars.

Do you mean wars that involve weapons, people shooting each other? Yes, at some point a large-scale war will mean the end of humanity because weapons will be so advanced and destructive to the point it will blow up the entire earth. So, yeah even a madman would think twice to push the nuke button.

Anyway, I think the future wars would be in the case of information, economy, and tech wars. Whoever gets the upper hand will practically rule the world even if the border doesn't change.

There will always be war and crisis even if all the wars and crisis currently are resolved. It will only take a little while before another one starts in another corner of the world. I think one reason why there will always be wars and cris is because some people and companies as well as organisations benefits from crisis, they need crisis because it is during this time that their business blossoms, so they always try to influence situation and ensure that is crisis somewhere. Another reason there will always be wars and crisis is because people from different places with different beliefs will never agree on one thing.

 I think you can agree with me that wars will never end. And with the events going on around the world, even with the ones you mentioned, it's just a clear interpretation of what was spoken in the Holy Book. In another angle, as long as there is a choice between good and bad, humans will always be at war with themselves over which side to be on.
 Some people say "we can resolve the war", but in all honesty won't because in a way, they seem to be getting something from it, either power or more arms or even the chance to prove superiority over the weaker one. But the truth still remains, war can't be stopped as long as man still has greed inherent in him.

A question arises in all of us that the world will ever be able to escape war and conflict? Because there was almost always war and conflict in the world and is constantly increasing. At this time from a small war, it is turning into a big one. New countries are added to intensify it. Every country is always active to protect their own interests. Political instability, climate change, risk of economic recession, etc., however, play a major role in deterring war. However, the main reason for this war is the arms race of the global superpower countries and the aim of increasing their business.

Palestine and Israel have been in conflict for a long time. Israeli oppression of Palestinians continues. Every day which appeared as headlines in various newspapers.

The first conflict of the 21st century started in Afghanistan, an Asian country. After the Twin Towers attack, the country was widely attacked for harboring terrorists. The war between Taliban and American soldiers started.

But that war was not only in Afghanistan. Every year war has started in new countries. We have seen wars organized in Iraq in 2003, Libya in 2006, Syria in 2011, and Yemen in 2015. This war continues. Before the war, there was peace in those countries. There was economic prosperity. But because of the war, all those countries are broken today.

Again, Myanmar was another country in Asia that was ruled by the military for more than 6 decades, but there are also various conflicts and wars going on in the country through a military coup in 2021, which has now turned into a civil war.

Stability has not yet returned to Myanmar, and a fierce war has erupted between Russia and Ukraine. Russia's war with the West has caused massive losses and the war continues. Due to this war, the world economy has now had a major negative impact, including inflation. Thousands of people have already been killed in Russia and Ukraine.

Considering the above situation, we can realize that this war will never end. War will not stop as long as there is arms trade. We will constantly see war somewhere in the world. Do you think that it is possible to stop the war?
