Is war inevitable?

What is war? Why is war considered inevitable? According to Oxford dictionaries (2014),
War is defined as “a state of armed conflict between countries or groups within a nation or state”, generally involves competitions of a dispute with fierce and hostile conflicts. However, argumentative comments and debates on war as an inevitable situation are usually uncertainty and the result of war as inevitable often relates to the manipulation of conflict and how the war is going. Thus, the answer of it is always complex and complicated.

Despite It may seems impossible to create or construct a world without conflict, but perhaps conflict is not the problem when solving them. It seems to be a natural outcome of the friction of people living together, sharing resources, aspirations and obstacles

If fact, the causes of war are usually results due to strong desire in territory dispute, benefits on economy gains, test of new armaments, fame of glory in controlling over things or groups and etc. In addition, all the causes are seen to be the reason on why a war is inevitable because most of the war happens due to our human nature of self-determination on choices and decisions on our preferences and interests, as conflicts will then occur because of disagreement on inconsistent in agreement or approval over the opposition. Taking a few war as examples, The
Syria civil war, started when Syria’s government system disagreement on citizens’ requests for the tortured kids' release, Syria’s claim of democracy and greater freedom for people in the country. Situation worser as the Syria government angrily responded to the citizens, terminated

    War is ubiquitous; there will always be one country at war with another during all the times of the year. The first recorded war was in 2700 BCE in Mesopotamia between Sumer and Elam, and the latest have been the Syrian and Iraq wars. Although there have been countless amounts of changes in warfare since 2700 BCE there will forever be a constant controversy about what good comes from war. While soldiers are risking their lives across the world civilians are at home contemplating the pros and cons of warfare. Though trauma that accompanies war is unforgivable, war is not entirely useless. Without it countries and people around the world would be taken advantage of. The destruction left behind by war is nothing in comparison to the catastrophic…

    War can often occur with diminutive warning and result in vast destruction and excessive mortality. There are a variety causes for wars such as greed, power, and to improve the standard of living. Another cause of war is to protect the boundary of the country. In some countries such as Korea and Vietnam these boundaries define the different political views of the territories. Korea and Vietnam were divided between the Communist North and the Democratic South. This division of the countries led to disputes and then war. The causes of the Korean War were very similar to the Vietnam War with their roots in the Truman Doctrine and the Domino Theory, and events led to the War on Terrorism, however they did have differences and varying perspectives…

    Although all wars are conflicts, not all conflicts are wars. Conflicts don’t always have the involvement of armed hostiles, battles or even the involvement of the military. Conflicts can range from anything as little as an argument between politicians, all the up to an official war. Many people believe since World War 2 there have been less conflicts; however there has simply been less conflicts between nations and more within nations. One of the biggest reasons for this is that 90% of countries are made up of different ethnic groups and cultural groups. Some people do not like different types of people in their country which leads to conflict.…

    One reason there are wars is when two countries are at a disagreement, like in the civil war the south and the north were having disagreements about slaves. Other times it´s about an offence like if some Korean soldier came over and shot 30 people we would probably declare war on Korea. Sometimes it´s when we get forced into a war, like when Japan bombed Pearl harbor they forced us to defend our country.…

    I agree with the quote that “Wars between states can be explained by the distribution of power and capabilities in the international system.” Power distribution among all the great powers plays an important role for the stability and economy of the state. I believe that war determines who will govern the international system, and whose interests will be primarily served by the new international order.…

    Competition for resources is a big cause of war. This has something to do with supply and demand. When the demand for basic needs, opportunities is large and the supply of resources is scarce people will compete. This competition, most of times, leads to conflict. The conflict is also proportional to the discrepancy between the two factors. Examples of such are the civil wars in some African countries.…

    War was influenced by the pessimistic side of human nature. Machiavelli stated in his book “The Prince” that “....to maintain the state the prince is often obliged to act against his promise, against charity, against humanity and against religion. He should not stray from the good, but he should know how to enter into evil when necessity commands.” Morgenthau has shown his facet by “Animus Dominandi” or the human “lust” for power (Morgenthau 1965:192). Men and women are by nature political animals: they are born to pursue power and to enjoy the fruits of power.” “The craving for power dictates a search of relative advantages and secure political spaces.”…

    War is an ugly event that man has created over time. Darwin once said, “History is a battle of nations and races against one another for their domination. It is genetics and the belief in a master nation and master race.” War does two things; it helps or it hurts. It honors or it hijacks. Usually however war binds people together if the fight is for right of justice.…

    George Washington once said: “To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means for preserving peace.” As much of an irony it is, war is needed to safeguard our amity and to ensure that the balance of power will not be disturbed. The idea of war has been received with countless different altercations. In history, we learned that governments have glorified war to recruit young men to join the army by using propaganda. Soldiers who have died for their country were depicted as heroes, fighting for their own freedoms. However, in this modern age the horrors of war come to light, what happens on the battlefield is nothing to be triumphant about. Although war has never been a favorable option, it can be justified. A war is justified if…
