There are perhaps many causes worth dying for, but to me, certainly, there are none worth killing for.
War is money. Money buys power. "With great power comes great responsibility money".
It's all about money and power. Money equals power.
We're dominant species. We fight to gain power and spread our ideologies, no matter if people think they're good or bad.

Just wanna say that you're not totally right.
Money is different from power. In our current society, which is a rather peaceful one whatever one's could argue, money is deeply linked to power.
But when a society crashes, then we go back to the basics. The power, the real power, is the number of humans fighting, and the weapons they have. The people can, at anytime, in any of our civilized country, revolt and put down the head of the state to create a new order.
But well, where you're right is that "can" and "they will do it" are totally different, as long as we actually believe that money = power it will be the case :/
We are civilized humans not savages. Although we are civilized, we still fight wars like savages. War is essentially stealing. It's stealing because you are taking another's land, money, and resources while killing thousands of people in the process. It's immoral and unfair. The people who steal this way are not penalized for their wrongdoings instead they are treated as heroes.
If someone steals from someone else they get punished, if someone kills someone else they get punished. However if a group of individuals (country) plunders, murders and destroyes another group of individuals...they do not get punished. There is no authority to punish them.
The sad thing is, war has become somewhat like a game. We even have RULES for war
this is total madness. It's like making rules for stealing, it does not make sense.
War itself should be illegal it is a crime like any other crime. The fact that we wage war over each other reflects the evil in the collective human psycy. We are civilized but we continue to act like savages. What is the use of technological, and societal development when we cannot even be good to each other.
What do you guys think?
Is war justified?

Of course it is if you think about it war is a large scale murder and robbery. The word war is sugar coated it may still sound disturbing but that is best it can get to cover the actuall meaning of it.
i think some war is not crime. war to terrorism .! it s true!
War is never a crime if the war you start for the peace and well beings of all the humanity. War happens due to the cruelty of the other party or enemy who tries to steal every thing from them because of power and ego. 
War is a crime?
The only way you will be able to enforce this thinking with warmongers, is to make war on them.

Defence ministry should be renamed to peace enforcement agency.

Animals are civilized, they do not make wars. War is a crime, I agree, but it is also one of the largest business in the history of mankind and that's all that matters to warlords.
I don't want to be a party popper but animals are killing without hesitation and regret, for food, sex, self defence or for position in a hierarchy. Ants, termites, and some primates (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gombe_Chimpanzee_War) actually used to wage wars.

War is one of the main driving forces behind human development/evolution and technical advancement. Competition and fighting is part of the human nature, so get used to that.
Can't do anything to stop war. sometimes it should happen to teach us lessons. Take for some of the countries who have been great with wars. they've learned their lessons and look at them now, they're pretty much doing great with humanitarian activities, they now help improve poor countries.
To some people, war is for business. Like gun and bomb manufacturers. Because its big time crime, government cant even handle them so they just join who they think who is beneficiary. Leaving civilian casualties. 
Agreed. Each with different agendum like ISIS, NoKor and other revolts going on everywhere. Because its very expensive to persecute so many people so even governments go to war.
There are even ironies like promoting peace by proclaiming war Or by rallying.

of course war is a crime, but the story tell us that a world whitout war is just utopic, it's sad but it is so 'that works
The crime that you can't stop by any law. it's so sad...
we are still savages still we are remaing in 21st century but we are savage because we are destroying the world
War are so many crimes...

It is but more than that, it is more true that war is business...
War, sometimes, is the tool to solve problem of population explosion
Overpopulation can be solved by education. When people are educated, they won't have as many children. The fact that a half of the world does not receive good education is saddening. If all that money we spent on wars went towards developing the world as a whole, we would be far more united and our population situation will be far better than it is now. Also, war does not exactly expel populations rather it creates baby boom periods after millions have been killed and in a few decades the population increases more than it was pre-war. It is definitely not a good way to control population.
But like he said that is not the only case where war is used. Also useful to control society and distract people. People afraid of their neighbors are easier to control. War is also useful to steal money and resources from the population. From the country being attacked and the one attacking. Instead of investing the money in development it can go to the pockets of some businesses. Military contractors, weapons manufacturers, companies to rebuild after the war, etc. "War is a racket."

this is total madness. It's like making rules for stealing, it does not make sense.Better some rules to limit it than none. But it's true that they are mostly used by the stronger countries against the weak.
