War could be avoided simply by deciding who is the strongest, who is the most determined and an immediate surrender of the weakest.
Would there have been a WWII if Europe had immediately surrendered to the Nazis? No. If the Christians in Africa just knelt down before Islamic swords for their beheading would a war be necessary? No.
War is avoided by immediate surrender before blood is shed. Which side should do the surrendering?
Since World War 2, war has been a racket. World War 2 was not a "racket". The Germans and Japs were legitimate threats to all freedom-loving people in the world. If the United States had NOT chosen NEUTRALITY until 1941, World War 2 would have ended well before 1945.
Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq War, Afghan War..............all "invented" in the name of a "noble" cause, and all deemed "necessary" in the name of "freedom" and "security".
The "war" on terror is a legitimate war, much like World War 2, except with a deadly and cowardly enemy that cannot be defined by single nations with borders.
"WAR is a racket.
"It always has been.
It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.
"A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small 'inside' group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many.
"Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.
"In the World War a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows."

Point out the communists:Think about the fortune the communists are making off of the continent of Africa by funding and orchestrating those wars with the governments there! The oil, the minerals, the wealth being stolen from the people there is unprecedented. The most unreported story of the century no doubt.
Yes, a few people are getting very rich indeed!
And there's also a very strong possibility that the US involvement in WWI created the conditions for Hitler's rise in Germany during the period between the two great conflicts. IMHO, since WWI had been underway for two years when the US jumped in, and conditions of stalemate prevailed between the European/Asian combatants, a negotiated armistice between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers in 1914 would have left investment bankers in New York and London without anyone to collect from, since they loaned freely to both sides.Since World War 2, war has been a racket.

Prescott Bush (W's grandfather) and the Nazis
“Bush - Nazi Dealings Continued Until 1951” - Federal Documents
By John Buchanan and Stacey Michael
from The New Hampshire Gazette Vol. 248, No. 3, November 7, 2003

George Bush’s grandfather, the late US senator Prescott Bush, was a director and shareholder of companies that profited from their involvement with the financial backers of Nazi Germany.
The Guardian has obtained confirmation from newly discovered files in the US National Archives that a firm of which Prescott Bush was a director was involved with the financial architects of Nazism.
His business dealings, which continued until his company’s assets were seized in 1942 under the Trading with the Enemy Act, has led more than 60 years later to a civil action for damages being brought in Germany against the Bush family by two former slave labourers at Auschwitz and to a hum of pre-election controversy.
The evidence has also prompted one former US Nazi war crimes prosecutor to argue that the late senator’s action should have been grounds for prosecution for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
How Bush's Grandfather Helped Hitler's Rise to Power | Alternative
While the conditions that gave rise to Hitler's power certainly came out of WWI, it was because of the French, not the US. Germany agreed to pay reparations to France with the Treaty of Versailles. They could not pay the monumental debt. Germany tried to right itself economically by printing more money resulting in an inflation and the collapse of the German mark. Hitler righted the German economy by restructuring the system and announcing that he simply wasn't going to pay the reparations. This led to world wide confidence in Germany and a rush of bankers and investors.
The reparations were retired in 1986 still unpaid.
So you're just wrong.

the OP is a mind boggling sham of intellect. war, at times may be a racket, however, war at most times is about life, freedom and land. it also is about power and control.
to simplify war as merely a racket does an enormous injustice to what and why wars are really fought.
