hi...friends we all are on mylot.none of us has seen each other,nor has anyone met.then also many of us are good friends of each other.we are from different countries,yet we are friends.if we can become friends,without even knowing each other,or seeing any one,then why do the wars occur,why do the people fight and kill so many of our friends?and the funny thing is tht the decision is taken by a bunch of people who call themselves to be our representatives.its so foolish,cant the world behave as a single country?do look at the photo attached with this discussion.its abt an american soldeir crying after their victory over iraq.

war come and go but it is always started by people that don't have to actually fight in the war..we get drafted or volunteer in the name of god, country or apple pie...it is a lot of propoganda..both sides think God is on there side..how sad is that ?pathetic Alexander the Great cried when he had conquered the world (the known word)..and he was a very young man with no more wars or countries to conquer ..thus he cried too... There is only two things a man can't stand...getting what he wants and not getting what he wants...

I wish for world peace too and its a noble thought all of the world may be able to live friendly with each other but as long as socities value money and profit as the bottom line, we won't see that world of harmony. The world's leaders are too greedy.

Wars occur because of a lack of udnerstanding. maybe its a lack of understanding between governments because no individual goe son to fight a war without the assent of the government. it would be wrong to generalize that since we get along here on Mylot we should not go to war. No one likes war but sometimes it become snecessary. We need to look at the reason behind the war, solv it amicable and if that doesent happen then war becomes a necessity.

here in myLot, we are all friends because we share a common interest. may it be the money, it could be the discussions, we have one common goal. to share and discuss. . this goal binds us all together, and unconsciously deepens our friendship since we have constant communication. . on the war thing.. i guess it'll never end.. its really annoying to accept it, but all those in favor of war are definite beneficiaries..
