What wars besides some civil wars in the middle east are there?

2018-03-06 17:02:15 UTC  

If the military does their duty and takes down corrupt officials and defense contractors, every starving and sick person could be helped.

2018-03-06 17:02:56 UTC  

Even without the wars, that's not stopping corrupt contractors and officials from getting and dumping money into the war machine.

2018-03-06 17:03:02 UTC  

That's what corruption does.

2018-03-06 17:03:31 UTC  

War can create famine and so can corruption but they're not the problem in most places that suffer poverty. They simply can't eat because they don't have an education or a job and because of that they dont get money for food. This is usually because the governments of these places are also poor.

2018-03-06 17:03:35 UTC  

We could have no wars, and they would still be awarded billions of dollars unnecessarily.

2018-03-06 17:03:45 UTC  

You're assuming that corruption is logical and reasonable.

2018-03-06 17:03:54 UTC  

Corruption creates the criminally insane...government.

2018-03-06 17:04:16 UTC  

False. War is inevitable.

2018-03-06 17:04:28 UTC  

Never assumed it was logical or reasonable

2018-03-06 17:04:34 UTC  

you're putting words in my mouth again lmao

2018-03-06 17:04:43 UTC  

War is impossible without corruption.

2018-03-06 17:04:52 UTC  

No it's not

2018-03-06 17:05:29 UTC  

If you think it is then you're ignoring most of the history of war

2018-03-06 17:05:47 UTC  

it's way more complex than that and it's obviously not simply because of corruption

2018-03-06 17:05:54 UTC  

Tell me how war starts...

2018-03-06 17:06:02 UTC  

Usually to invade

2018-03-06 17:06:06 UTC  

Why?

2018-03-06 17:06:18 UTC  

To gain more power and land

2018-03-06 17:06:37 UTC  

Exactly, all under false pretenses.

2018-03-06 17:06:44 UTC  

That's corruption.

2018-03-06 17:07:14 UTC  

Then by that logic every tribe or kingdom or country that existed was and is corrupted

2018-03-06 17:07:35 UTC  

Your definition of corruption is so simplified and idiotic

2018-03-06 17:08:18 UTC  

Corruption: dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery.

2018-03-06 17:08:26 UTC  

It's like saying every ant colony that makes ant hills and goes to war with another one is corrupt.

2018-03-06 17:08:27 UTC  

That's exactly what you described.

2018-03-06 17:08:40 UTC  

Invading isnt that.

2018-03-06 17:08:52 UTC  

Nor is gaining power or land.

2018-03-06 17:09:15 UTC  

The reason invasions happen is due to corruption.

2018-03-06 17:09:22 UTC  

No it's not

2018-03-06 17:09:44 UTC  

Fraudulent conduct.

2018-03-06 17:09:56 UTC  

Invading under false pretenses is, by definition, corruption.

2018-03-06 17:10:14 UTC  

It's simple and literal.

2018-03-06 17:10:20 UTC  

That's like saying killing someone and assaulting someone is the same thing.

2018-03-06 17:10:33 UTC  

Invading is natural. Not corrupt

2018-03-06 17:10:42 UTC  

here you go again with false equivalencies.

2018-03-06 17:10:46 UTC  

The animal kingdom does it all the time

2018-03-06 17:10:50 UTC  

As did humans

2018-03-06 17:11:00 UTC  

Corruption turns us into animals.

2018-03-06 17:11:11 UTC  

Then the UN came along to prevent less conflict now there's mostly just civil wars.

2018-03-06 17:11:26 UTC  

We are animals. Thinking otherwise makes you narcissistic
