Assignment 9- Andy

Violence is almost never necessary. Violence is caused by simple conflicts that escalate over time. If these conflicts can solved as soon as they begin there would be little violence in the world. This phenomenon can be seen all around the world. In the Middle East past conflicts have led to war and strife. It comes to our generation to stop the cycle of hate and violence. Every time one side strikes out they reform the same grudge, resulting in more violence than ever before. To solve these seated conflicts often requires another player. Though many are opposed to others interfering in wars it often the only way to end cyclical violence.

Though it is not very often, there are times when violence is necessary. Sometimes, in the face imminent violence, preemptive action is necessary. If one or a few lives can be taken as an alternative to genocide violence is not only acceptable. but the best course of options. Sending thousands of people from either side of a conflict to die is pointless, and in the end only shows which side was more willing to throw away lives. Violence and war is just a waste of life no matter the justification.
