The point of this post is that humans are not the only GOD created creatures that fight wars. It was just interesting that god would create other creatures that would wage war, for there own personal benefit.
Now as far as fighting for peace goes. There seams to be some misconception that the outcome of war can never be peace. But isn’t that the ideal of the great war of Armageddon? And something I always wondered about, the nations are supposedly going to make the clam of “Peace and security” before the end. Wouldn’t that mean things will get better before the end?
As for not getting to know the Enemy before fighting him, there is no reason to, you are on the battlefield for one reason, and it isn’t for some grand social event. I personally feel that a soldier’s blood is on his own hands, as he makes an active choice to be there. After all, god did give every single one of us a middle finger.
