What is war?

Cicero defines that war broadly as a contention by force while Hugo Grotius adds that war is the state of contending parties, considered as such. Thomas Hobbes notes that war is also an attitude: By war is meant a state of affairs, which may exist even while its operations are not continued; Denis Diderot comments that war is a convulsive and violent disease of the body politic; For Karl von Clausewitz, war is the continuation of politics by other means, and so on. Each definition has its strengths and weaknesses, but a war on my own definition is a fight of two or more nation in order to conquer the weaker nation by using an aggressive action. The definition is already shown the cruelness of war. "Be the change you want to see in the world." By Ghandi. This quote was usually heard when changes had to made. Some people believe that a war is an instrument that can bring to peace to the world. Does the war was only our hope to bring the peace back to world after a crisis that going on around the world. Sometimes wars do not really need in bring peace to the world. Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free. Wars something bringing more bad thing compared to it first priority which is believe to bring up some sunshine of peace towards world. During World War 1 and 2, many innocent people were killed when the war exploded. The war was caused by opposing interests and capabilities which specific sociocultural differences and similarities between the parties. Some leaders had a will-to-conflict with another nation which can brought wars that can affect the whole country. When there was a significant change in the balance of powers, the rebellion that does not agree will attend to have a fight with the government that rules the country. Then, some vetos country such as America, and United Kingdom using a savior as a reason to intervene the country. As a result of these wars, many damages were made. During the atom bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, hundred thousands were died and the radiation trauma still can be seen until today when most people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are infertile and their progeny is having a bad condition when is born. Moreover, billions of money was wasted in order to win the war although the countries already know the side effect of the war. Many infrastructures were burned, collapsed and damaged need to be repaired immediately. Some of the war victims those who were unforgiving towards the perpetrators were having a stress disorder and depressions were significantly more common than in those with high forgiveness scores. Such studies seek to give scientific weight to the notion that the mental health of victims is at risk if they do not forgive those who hurt them. The moral economy that operated during the hearings is indicated by the fact that commissioners were not uncomfortable if testifiers wept while giving evidence but that they did not like them to become angry. Victims of war are often expected to be vengeful because of their traumatisation or brutalisation and to promote new cycles of violence. The emotional reactions of people affected by war are perceived as harmful to themselves and dangerous to others; this leads to a belief that the reactions of victims should be modified. Especially, children affected by war are often reported as being brutalisedwill be more aggressive and developed the new generation which is more cruelty in their lives. Some people believe that the only way to find peace is through pain. There right because of how we act right now. We chose to live in a world of pain but in the beginning we had just happiness all over but because of our decision we live like this right now. There are people out there in the world who dont have food, shelter, health, or family and we that do have all that, we fight over it like animals. As the conclusion, we human being should avoid the war

and need to tolerate which each other. Understanding and respect of other opinion will bring peace to the world. Imagine a world where there is no hunger, where everyone has a home, family,peace and there is no war going on around us. I believe we can make this dream come true.
