Why Does Humanity Want A World War?

Word Wars, and their were a series of them, were fought because European Empires dominated the globe. That is not the case now and no world war is possible with the United States and it allies accounting for 90% of military spending on earth. All you have left now is the very rare regional conflict. Compared to the rest of human history we live in the most peaceful time ever. Mostly because the US and NATO make it a one sided game.

You want to bring charges against the Generals who commandeered the troops which rescued prisoners from the ovens? My my aren't we on our high horse of anti-war sentiment.
Oh well, General Patton at least was a major player and he's dead anyways so best of luck on your endeavor.

However, you might have a point with some of the CFR Generals of today. Petraeus managed to get out of testifying on Benghazigate by claiming he had an affair. Was that the coward's way out or blackmail?

I don't think its a case of humanity wanting a world war, rather a few pr*cks in governments and the corporate world that stand to profit from it. Historically speaking, and you can reference each major conflict over the centuries yourself, if you want to get out of a recession quickly, start a war. Recovery from the mini-depression of 2007-2009 has occurred on paper only. TPTB have been using Keynsian economic theory to break free from the doldrums (spend the way out of recession by endless borrowing) and it isn't working for what's left of the Middle Class that support the economy. To avert a collapse of the world economy, we get a war, plain and simple.

Hence the age old saying "when all else fails they take you to war." War is but a means to an end for these people. In one hand a business to get rich off of, in the other a tool for depopulation a means to eliminate the "useless eaters of the world". Crafty bastards they are.
