id say men with money start them, and ask young men with no money to fight them..
i wonder.
if the men who start em, would fight along side the young men and women??
here,s what i think..
if any elected official, or King, has an issue or wants to start crap..
let them come over, and one on one with the leader of what ever country he has the issue with..
wars would end, and our young people, wouldnt have to fight...
dont start no crap, wont be no crap...right??
i think these men and women that fight, and defend our lives, are simply..
AWESOME!!! they do if for little pay, and a lot of heart.
and more guts then ANY elected official will ever have..

I disagree, power and egos start wars. Do you think for a NY second that Hitler started WWII for money? Of course people with power and big egos always seem to have money but that is not what motivates them. Young men fight the wars because they believe they are invincible and they want to fight. Every single troop we have in the Sand Box or the Rock Pile volunteered to be there.

Historically the females of the species stays behind to produce the next generation of young warriors. It is God 's role for them. If he didn't want it that way, it wouldn't just be the female that is equipped to produce and nurse the replacements.

Sooooooooo, you saying that men like Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, etc started the Revolutionary War because of their desire for "power" and their "egos". Really? So much for those trite concepts like "freedom" and God given "inalienable rights" huh?

Hitler DID start the war for money! Not for his personal use but for his country. He was a warped indiviual, but he did it for the economics of Germany and perhaps for his own power.
