Absolutely unnecessary.

Personally, I cannot say.....The reasoning for establishing War with anyone is vast and cannot really be judged by the morals of a single person. There is no such thing as Good or Bad, Just or Evil. It is all simply based on points of view, which are created through life experiences and such. My own experiences have lead me to be pro-war, only under certain circumstances do I believe it is "righteous". When the purpose is for a right to freedom or aiding anothers survival, do I place my support in it.

On the opposing side, one might say that war is unnecessary, but that is opinion. Even if the reason is for pure bloodlust, that does not make it unnecessary. People are instinctively aggressive, that will never change. One's instincts are natural and nearly impossible to break with will power alone. However, humans have attributes that transcend the simple-mindedness of instinct driven beasts.

In conclusion; War is neither right or wrong, just decided upon by humankind's incompetence.

What Tid said.

Revolutions are great and stuff, but the loss for families can be traumatizing and depressing.

You know, war originally was for conquering other countries, wiping smaller/weaker ones.

I am for and against war. Yes, war is pointless (no, not really), and yes it is painful, it fucks a lot of people, but like Heavy said, it keeps the world from overpopulating. It also grows an economy. Where there's war, there's industry of metal/iron/weapons to be made, and thus, needing man-power. Soldiers are also needed, men and women alike. Uniforms, air crafts, tanks, equipment, etc is also in need of workers. But, with so many resources being made, there will be debts.

So, war is good and bad. There really isn't one stand on it, and this topic will become a see-saw argument.

No one starts a war without reason.
Look at Hitler, everyone (based on un-knowledgeable people) thinks that Hitler had a blood lust against the Jews. And true as that may be, he still had a reason for wiping out millions of Jews. Placing them in concentration camp remains a puzzle to me though... I know that he experiment on a lot of them, but the rest were just tortured/cremated/gas to death.
