In many ways we have been the fortunate generation. Certainly in the UK and USA we have avoided war, although we did live under a constant threat of nuclear war.
Now, we seem to be returning to the cycles of wars , that really serve no purpose at all. Yet again, greed comes to the fore. In many nations we seem to be ruled by idiots who have their eyes on other nations. Sadly, it appears human nature is to fight and not live in peace.
Most wars seem to be the result of some childhood trauma in the leaders. It is a great pity that we cannot live in peace with our neighbours and put our efforts collectively for the benefit of the planet rather than weapons.
It is likely future world wars could be different from those in the 20th century. War is likely to involve cyber warfare and possibly biological warfare. Perhaps these will be countered by the MAD (mutually assured destruction) definition meaning "if you do it to us we can do it to you".
