Thank you.
If you think about the trillions of man hours expended in the defense of our country, the design of ships, bombs, planes, tanks etc, etc, etc. It's too bad we can't just concentrate our efforts for peaceful causes exclusively. It seems that man has an innate desire to acquire power through naked acts of military aggression. That's just the way it's been throughout all of history. It would be naive to think things will be different in the future.
It's a behavior not just relegated to humans. Animals have territorial boundaries. Even chimps in the wild go hunting in bands for chimps from other territories. Once they find one they'll rip out its' throat and genitalia.
Ouch!!!
