No money to be made by peace.
I said no money to be made by peace. The Military industrial complex is Boss over the World.
But it's certainly possible to make money in times of peace. People do it all the time.
Sure, it's pretty powerful, but it's by no means monolithic, and by no means exclusively military.

It's not like humans started to be violent in the 1940s though.
Humans are violent by nature, thats's it. No world peace. Ever. And it's nothing to do with 'the profitability of war'.

Most people seem to think World peace is not possible.
So... Let me expand that question. Is World Peace possible for God? Can God bring about World Peace?

Hmm... apparently it is not part of the post...Isaiah 2:2 "...the mountain of the house of Jehovah will become firmly established...and to it all the nations must stream" BIBLE STUDY
The UN has been a weak "peace-keeping" force since its resurrection after the Second World War. It is presently unable to contain the world's unrelenting violence. If the nations were to give it power, it could accomplish its aims....but only at the expense of all our freedom.
Anyway, basically what Isaiah is talking about, is how World Peace will come about. That God will setup a group of experts, lead by the Savior, who will "stream" wisdom to the world, and all the nations of the world will listen and learn from their wisdom.
I give this example to show that this is what politicians know. The essence of a politician, the core thinking, is that of force. Force=war. War is all that politicians know. When we ask them for peace and safety, the only method they can think of to achieve it, is war.
See, what I'm saying, is they need to learn peace. They need to learn to love, not hate.
Well, he was on the right track when he killed everybody with a flood. He just made the mistake of giving Noah the heads up.Can God bring about World Peace?
