If nobody went to make bombs/guns/soldiers/weapons etc for our 'governments' or 'terrorists' however they prefer to be termed, then would we live in peace?

Definately, the egg and spoon race is a wicked idea! And maybe we should have the royal family breed up a few more uinterbred little kids to partake in the warfare. Imagine them up against the vodka drinking russians.\nI reckon there would be <if there were no ewapons> less control over the masses - wich has to be a good thing. And there would simply be calm and not so calm areas of the world. There'd be little communes, and then gang rivaled cities. But at least all the fighting nobheads would kill themselves in one place, and the sophisticated calm people wouldn't have to pay for it.

for there to be peace that equals no creativeness and no curiosity and no desire to question as long there is creativity, curiousity and the desire to question there will never be peace... not saying that i am for war or killing but we as people most of us can't even be in peace with our selves do u really think we can be in peace with one another? it is in our nature to be envyious and jeleous of one another you can deny it all you want but 95% of us are like that so as long all that is in this world in our nature there never will be peace.  There always will be arguments and conflict of interest.  Hyperthatically speaking there are no conutries, no states, and only one religion in the world every lives by the same rules and believe in same belief do you think there will be peace?  Realistically speaking the answer is no because there always will be conflict in order for there to be no conflict we will have to want and desire everything the same no variety ... me my self i don't even want that... life would be so boring... drama spices up life but killing of innocent is never fair and never just.

No, I mean "hell no."  We do so much to try and avoid civilian injury and casulty, we do more to try and defend their rights, and are working to leave the country.  Terrorist are working to inflict fear, create hatred, and in the name of an extreme version of a peaceful religion.

well there ya go. these ansews say it all. they never saw what you are saying only keywords to take unrelated issue with. no remorese, no responsibility, no compassion & no soul. what they lack in these qualities they make up with ignorance, denial, sadistic creed, psychotic delusions & soulless amusement. no amount of education can produce a mind.\n\ndamn prople, where do you think the money & power comes from for a reletively small group to make all thses 'foriegn policies' & enforce them with military. YOU, your taxes pay for it. your bodies supply the wars.

Of course.\nPacifists don't make peace.  Soldiers make peace.\nWhether soldiers of the gun or soldiers of conscience.\nAnything precious comes at a cost.

Here is my opinion...From what I have seen, Pakistan has been (as a country) cooperative in dealing with violence and terrorism (the War on Terror, if you will...) But as previously stated, there are violent people in ALL societies. To believe that World Peace will ever happen, is a fantasy. I am not being negative, it is just not a possibility in this world. Everyone should look at people as individuals instead of lumping them together with the other people that live in their city, state, country, etc. I know I don't want to be judged based on the things my neighbors do! :)

As a people we can only change the government I know your wanting to leave the government out of this but they are the reason we are hated. Yeah fear us thats a good one... Would you fear a pyscho with a gun? Maybe alot of countries already do... Is that a good thing? Is that going to prevent terrorism?

I think if we all took the time to understand each others cultures/religions and celebrated the good things about each other & not allways highlighted negativities we wold all be less stressed out.. the average person in most couontires that have or want to dvelop nuclear weapons is just about trying to feed themselves if governments think that developing weapons is more important then let the people be the judges of that, the people dont want war they want peace!! and a little happiness in their lives, which can only acheived through love/spirituality & caring for each other as humans, this is what sets us apart from animals.. Thanx

why do "WE", Um I think its more like why do "YOU". because "I" dont believe that. we aren't there to fight a war, we are there to make peace and contain the moronic fruit cakes over there from fighting. we are the peace keeprs not the fighters, if we are under combat yes we will fight back i mean after all would you want someone shooting at you? if I had to be there and I had a gun and someone was shooting or bombing me, darn skippy I would fight back. but again back to your question I dont believe that "WE" think that, only "you" do.

I never accepted Bush's idea that democracies will always be peaceful. Democracies are nice, but don't guarantee a country that follows humanitarian values. Unfortunately, Bush told us that democracies will lead to peace, and creating democracies became his top justification for the war.\nNow perhaps we can get back to reason and realize that what we are after is a world with governments that do not promote violence and terrorism and that support human rights. These governments may or may not be democratic, and we should not act as though democracies are the only form of government capable of producing peace.\nHow will the world react? Probably by further isolating the Hamas and doing what we can to overthrow the government.

No, that would just mean the extinsion of human kind, we would just need to defend us and destroy the arsenal of the enemy.

this is exactly the point.  if you could get a stablized govt in every country on the world this would be the next step.  but right now there are unstable govts.  And the person with the most weapons or most backing are the leaders.  It can change at the drop of a hat.  This is why you cannot allow bad people to get ahold of govts that could then use the nations power to wage war.\n\nfor who ever said all war is about power you are wrong.  DEAD wrong.  Religion is the driving force of most wars now.  Sunnis and Shites, Tutsi and Hutu, Muslim extremists and non and what was the japanese mind set before hiroshima.  They belive they  are the true descendes of their religion and everyone else is sub human comparitivly.  The muslim extremists belive that the prophisies say that the messiah will return after armegedon.  They want this armegedon to occur for the messiah to return.  They believe life after this world is greater than life on this world so they will continue to strive toward these ideals until their death.

I would hope that those responsible for the proliferation of weapons would be annihilated so that the rest of us could try to build a peaceful world, that is, if there's anyone left.

This question has been around for years.  Basically, it depends upon which side of the fence you are on.  I don't think it will ever happen, because the opposite side will definitely oppose it.  \n\nIn an argument against it, would you want it if we had some war monger prez who wanted to obliterate the world?
