Pros And Cons Of Not Going To War
To go to war, or to not. Obviously to not. At the end, America should not have gone to war with Britain. The cons of going to war completely outweigh the pros of going. People only wanted to go to war because of investments to make money or profit. Not only that but the poor and minorities are the ones that will be sent to war while the rich class will stay and not participate. Finally, banks “brainwashed” people into thinking war was the best option because banks wanted to not lose money on investments. Clearly the US should not have gone to war.
People did not want to go to fight for their country. They did not want war to help out Russia, France or Britain. They did not want war to be a global power. They wanted war for the sole purpose

    The war waging in Iraq is the biggest argument in the United States today. There are two sides to this argument, as there is any every case. Either you are a supporter of the war, or you don’t support the war. Though you can’t be in the middle because this issue is far to important no to care about. In the spring of 2003, President George Bush declared war against Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq. President Bush strongly believed that Saddam either had or was harboring weapons of mass destruction. He gave Saddam a forty-eight hour deadline to remove them. Saddam did nothing. In result, we invaded Iraq. It took only weeks for the most powerful army in the world to take over this weak country. Then the hunt for the weapons of mass destruction began. Come to find out, no weapons were found. Only a few rockets filled with nerve agents. Later on, Saddam was found hiding in a hole under a house outside a small village. Since then, the Americans have been trying to run this country. Although most of the Iraqi’s are glad we have taken out Saddam, there is a small half that is not, and has been making the rebuilding process very difficult. I am very much for the war and I hope to further solidify my…

    Vietnam War Benefits

    An example for going into a war due to involvement by the country, is the French involvement in Vietnam. Due to colonizing Vietnam, the French didn’t want to lose said area; so they went to war. Second, is alliances. Alliances are a strategic reason to become involved in a war, because then when your country needs the help, alliances will have your back. Countries without alliances are at risk for attack or imperialism. The third reason of benefits for a country is a risky justification. Many Americans were dissatisfied with US involvement in the Frist Gulf War due to the hidden reason of wanting to obtain Kuwait’s special oil. However, benefits such as stopping terrorism by being involved in the War on Terror are more than enough. If lives will be saved in the long run by going to war, the war is just. Lastly, a just reason for going to war would be if injustices are happening. The only example needed more this rationale is the countless lives lost when Adolf Hitler decided that those not of his Aryan ideal could be wasted. War is not an end all to problems, but it is at times, the only…

    This militaristic goal the countries all possessed increased the probability of them joining the war. Feeling they had the right technology, as was the case, their confidence incited the declaration of war and amount of resources that were to be put to use. After some time, these resources ceased to exist, or were extremely scarce. The countries that owned colonies called their troops and implemented them into their own. At last, imperialism provoked militarism, and delayed its future…
