peace or war

Peace or war? It has been a profound matter concerning humankind for so many centuries. You want peace or war? Yes, almost every one of us would say peace. But, if you look back through human history, you will see that wars have occupied a large part of our history books. Why is that? Because the totalitarians usually believe that war is the easiest way to solve the problem while peace needs great courage, patience and love to fulfill. For those who seek power and desire, peace is the most expensive and profitless thing. We can see from our history that every time when there is a dictator, there is war.

If we chose war as a way to solve disagreements or to grab power, do you know what the cost is? There were 10 million live dumped into the graves and seas in the First World War, because of the ambitions of a few totalitarian regims. And there were more than 50millon innocent lives killed in Second World War. From these two wars, we can see the horror and cruelty of war. Since the war is bound to cause so much harm, why do we, the innocent human beings have to get involed in it?
