Delegate of Pachamama, the problem is not weapons and systems of defense, it is resources. You do not start a war because they have better guns, where is the sanity in that? Nor do nuclear powers go to war because they are invincible machines, for what is left to conquer but dust through their use. Resources are what is needed to achieve peace, for there are haves and there are have nots. Should the needs of the world be fulfilled through the adequate distribution of water, food, housing, education, perhaps this world would not be so instable. But everywhere people are lacking. Within the American continent they vie against each other for routes to trade, the DSA is beset on all sides by economic enemies, and you wonder why they are so quick to go to war! It is not madness, it is the struggle to survive. In poorer regions, broken governments exist because people need. They need education, they need food, they need responsible governance. Their priority is not to ensure their enemy does not have anthrax, their priority is to ensure they have food, water, and anything else they need to prosper.
Our challenge is not to deliver us from weapons of destruction, it is to think outside the box. How do we accomplish world-wide equal distribution of resources without infringing upon national sovereignty and the profits of capitalism?
