9 Alexander Reese

     War seems to be an eternal plague throughout human history. Very VERY rarely does the entire world experience a time of global peace. But sometimes, in order to defeat monsters, we must be willing to become monsters. For example, if no one decided to stop Hitler (they waited quite a long time to do anything and that didn't work out very well for Europe), he would've captured all of Europe and become virtually unstoppable. If we didn't challenge him, he would be left free to create his master race. As long as people are unreasonable and greedy, war will always be around. War is better than doing nothing, but not necessarily always justified. The morality of a war depends on why it started, because sometimes stopping something like genocide is worth going to war. Could we really sit around and do nothing while something already costing human lives is continuing unabated?
