Chapter 5 - War

Why does love almost always precede it, proside over it, and drive it forward?

What is war but a stupid and childish argument scaled up and leathalized

Suppose a war were fought over a piece of land

For water rights

We have this near limitless supply of water

And now we're fighting over who gets to use a little to water our crops

The equivalent of a toddler fighting with another toddler over a toy that unless its destroyed will likely last until the thing holds no interest to either of them

The love of power or possession

If I own the water rights I have the power the authority to deny people water

Then the duration of the war fought over the land

Some folks just love killing

Some just want to make sure that their family has water and if some Tyrant gets control that's not a guaranteed outcome.

And he who provides the weapons of war loves the war because its good for profits.

War is a product of a twisted Love.
