I'm not an s-mod

22sa! Gasp! I can't believe it's you again! Glad to see you back...

Oh and uh, world peace can't happen...bler bler...
 
I think the events of today prove that world peace is not a possibility :/

(the terrorist attack in London, if you were confused.. o_O)

I have no idea why we didn't attack Albania. I was only ten then and we don't talk about that war too often <_<;

I suppose you'll have no choice but to hate me because I don't believe that all war is wrong. Conflicts have to be taken on a case-by-case basis and we have to act from there...I supported Afghanistan, and I supported Iraq until everything spiraled out of control. I believe that intention is as important as end result.

Even if we didn't directly dethrone Milosevic, we did stop much of his butchering. He had very little power after the incident. They elected a new government, no?

Oh, and I meant NATO, not UN. Sorry <_<;
I support Kaga... the idea of world peace is nice, but it's idealistic. Humans will never completely agree on everything, so there will always be conflict, even in small domestic occurences. War is necessary. I don't LIKE it, but I'm not saying world peace is achievable. We can help the world become more peaceful, but world peace isn't going to happen. =/ Besides, Kaga's also right in the supporting Afghanistan thing... I support war when it's for good, moral reasons - like liberation - but I don't support it when civilians are hurt unnecessarily. They're always going to be hurt, but in Iraq and so forth... it did get out of control.
And I suppose everyone hates me now, too, for being a pessimist. I do support the idea of world peace, but I know it's idealistic, not achievable. -_-
 
Hm i'm probably going to state what's already been stated but it's my opinion. I don't really ever think we will completely acheive world peace since there's going to be some dominant leader in some continent in some country we don't pay much attention to that's going to hurt people or cause an uprising of war and stuff. I think the U.S. and the Middle East are a long way from helping acheive world peace. Long way. I don't think war is wrong unless it's not for a good cause. This would be an example: Go fight and kill the enemy so we can take over thier country and steal their oil. If I was older, I wouldn't fight for that. I would fight for protection of the people and trying to perserve democracy since in most cases democracy works best for countries.
 
Yesh, but what if your country desperately needs oil? Oil is precious, and especially the G8s, and sadly, the Australian government [the country is quite giving =D], for example, aren't very generous. xD; Well, you'd go and fight for it out of despair. =x
Besides, apparently one student assassinating Archduke Ferdinand stared the whole WWI... >> . = O
 
Oh, 0.o I thought an assination started WW I? Anyway's the oil prices are rising here and I guess the country is in desperate need of oil but it doesnt mean we just have to like take it from them. I'm sure we could work up some contract deals and such, all that business mumbo jumbo and plop a couple million into their hands.
 
Yes, a student killed Archduke Ferdinand. That's what I said.
But what if the other countries also had a shortage of oil, or you were governing a country with little to give, or a very poor one? XP
My cynical point being "Niceness is the dream of the idealistic when you're looking after a whole country".

Yeah well, if the other countries had a shortage of oil I guess we'd have to deal now wouldn't we? If I was governing a country with little to give or it was a very poor country i'd have to ask for help or something from other countries. I really don't think one country can be independant, most likely interdependant it would be.

That's why we need to get off our ***es and get those alternative fuels into the market ASAP!
 
* Readies for Negative Rep * World Peace is impossible without One ruleing Goverment. And I mean really, things would get boreing without War and the like.
 
But then it still wouldn't necesssarily be possible, because one government could not possibly control the world. And naturally people are going to disagree. Actually, one ruling government might even throw the world into more chaos.

Okay - is world peace possible? o.o; I was writing a poem for this poetry contest, and the theme was, "write your thoughts on world peace". I'm afraid that my thoughts on world peace are too pessimestic. Frankly...

I think that world peace is impossible.

Oh, it's a tempting dream, but the only way for that to happen is for everyone to set their selfishness, greed, nationalism, etc. aside - To stop thinking about your own benefit. That's impossible. o.O; I mean from what I've heard of in past news, the US was using some events to their own benefit, not to get world peace. <<:

So, what are your thoughts on world peace?

And who knows, I may get some inspration. xD

Don't make fun of our country.

Totally doubt it. I bet in the future there will be more greed and hatred. The past was great. In the Jesus's time, except they burned Jews. :( (I'm not Jewish by the way.) And Sadam or the other bad guy says he's coming back to America to kill inicents, there was a video they found today. In the war, when someone shoots someone, they don't think or realize they're killing a husband/son/uncle/brother/father/cousin, it's a bad thing. :/
No one is perfect, but some people are way too far from perfect...

What is the point of Peice?When you can bring Pain,Death and Suffering.

Reeeeeeeal mature, bucko. Go take your grade-school-goth attitude somewhere else, because all we're going to do here is laugh at how pitiful your nazin00b statement is, we've all heard it before from kindergartners who think they're the grim reaper. You'll grow old one of these days and know what it is to suffer and die, or maybe you'll be murdered, executed, killed by chance, and fall victim to something you now glorify!

Have a nice day :D
 
I think we can all conclude that we should stop worrying about world peace because this modern dream of ours isn't going to happen now or ever. I don't mean to be the bearer of bad news but I'm just saying what's true. There's always going to be someone out there that's going to revolt against another country and start some kind of tension that could lead to a war etc. Pretty much all we do bring is pain, suffering, and death because when we're trying to save people we're also killing people to protect them. I would like to go back to the 1940's where at least we fought for a good reason rather than liberating a country we knew was under the reign of a regime by Saddam for like 10 years after he invaded Kuwait and George Bush just had a thing in his head saying he wanted to go to war with Iraq so we could finish the job?.....
 
I don't think its impossible... I just think its not totally possible, because of the fact that the world NEEDS negativity to create positivity, the world needs rich to make poor. All Jobs are based on Good and Bad things, and world peace would kind of disturb it. Unless they can come up with plans that won't upset either side...then its possible, but...just not in this day and age.

We can all do something to help though.

You said America used something for their own benifiet.

If there is world peace, there will be less inventions, because that's what people usally fight over.
