I  disagree w/parts of Jaz's doomsday quotes. I don't think man needs war in 
some  instinctual or genetic way--it's capitalism that needs war. If certain  
countries don't destroy others through war, their corporations will not be  
able to stay on top. THe economic laws of capitalism require each capitalist  
(or group of them) to make MORE profits than others, in order to get a greater  
market share than their competitors. THis is the main cause of all modern  
wars--all the other stuff like religion, nationalism, revenge, territory--are  
just expressions of what the capitalists need. Cases in point: in Iraq the  
biggest negotiating topic between Iraqi groups and America is over control of  
oil; in WWII the Europeans were fighting over colonies in Africa, Asia, etc.  and 
the war served to boost capitalism by destroying production (mostly in  
Europe & Japan, currently the world's stongest economies?) so they could  increase 
profits by rebuilding.
