War on Oil

I think the wars in 20th century and 21th century are all for oil. Maybe, just maybe, in the future we'll be fighting for helium3. My question is, is it worth it? Since we waste oil in wars, do we get them back?

Well, I think all wars are pointless, since the end result doesn't solve anything. Obviously we can't get it back. Maybe you're right that we will be fighting for helium3 but we are trying hard to avoid wars from happening.

It's not because we try hard to avoid war, it's because we want war. War destroys our opponent and that all it matters to us. (Not me anyway)

Well, it's still pretty pointless to fight. Destroying enemies can't really achieve anything (well...except superiority) and nothing can actually be gained that can benefit the winning country.

But you'll wipe out a threat. Terrorist?

Well, terrorists should be killed. If battles have to be fought then they are fought. If they are a threat to nations, of course they should be eliminated. Terrorists won't disappear unless you kill all of them (not exactly possible) or convince/force them to not be terrorists and disband them.

I think terrorism maybe a psychological idea other than all evil and stuff. Terrorist fight because they find their life unfair, so to convince them you may have to give them what they want. But to convince them we need to have a war.

Actually most of them fight for their religious views which they believe America in infringing upon.

I think they fight just because America and other countries are pushing it too far.

Ya, basically.
