If you think the fighting will stop any time soon you are very mistaken - too many people have lost in this conflict to let it go.

Look at the IRA - still some residual nutters in Belfast wanting to kill people for what is now a dead and irrelevant cause - we took the land hundreds of years ago. Jesus - look at Scotland independence!!

I would go so far to say the average human just wants a normal life living in peace, and all his/her needs met. Its the politicians who fuck everything up but its the average joe being affected the most. Such as army soldiers and civilians. The people in power just sit in their nice offices.

What would be great is to get the politicians to fight in a boxing arena to sort out problems! I'm sure that would save huge amounts of money, actually you could probably raise money as so many people would pay top dolla to see it!
