A Just society would never deliberately initiate war

I thank con for his quick acceptance and I encourage a fair and healthy debate with no forfeits. Also, I am declaring that I don't have any personal feelings on the topic and everything I say is in the spirit of the debate.Assertion 1: - War wrecks and killsAccording to www.historylearningsite.co.uk in an article titled “Civilian Casualties of World War 2,” 30,497,000 civilians total were killed as well as 24,517,000 troops in World War 2, making a grand total of 55,014,000 deaths. This, as well as $1500 billion lost (The Penguin Atlas of World History), is what WW2 left behind, and THIS is what our opponents are supporting. Do we really want death? Violence? Destruction? A just society would never start this sort of massacre willingly. My opponents say yes to this unnecessary death and destruction, but we say NO! No matter what the cause a just society should never start manslaughter and destruction.Assertion 2: - War is bad for natureWar can burn down entire forests and fields, its chemicals can kill plants and animals, it can destroy habitats, and it can drive species extinct. Do we want all these living things and their necessities do be destroyed in our own selfish pursuit? Why should we destroy fertile land and kill living things that have nothing to do with our “little” argument? Though the opposing team supports this, we don’t. A just society would never do this to the world. My evidence is an article on www.everyjoe.com titled “War is Bad for the Environment.”Assertion 3: - The aftermath of wars can still destroyLandmines in past war zones can still destroy and blow stuff up. Chemicals in the air from chemical warfare can kill by breathing in or by polluting a water supply. A just society should never start wars if the consequences are so dangerous and long lasting. Though the opposition supports this long-lasting death, we DON’T. War is not only a wound, but it’s a wound that could possibly never heal. My evidence is an article on www.everyjoe.com titled “War is Bad for the Environment.”Assertion 5: - War causes povertyDuring war, you think only the lives of the young men and women who are fighting the war are lost, but have you ever thought of the people who have lost their lives, their family, their dreams, their necessities, and their money because of war? By people, I mean people who are innocent and cannot do anything but see there family perish, there dreams forever gone and maybe even die. War is linked to poverty because the economy level goes down and than there wouldn't be enough money for providing infrastructure, for example the government will spend more money on weapons than on making roads or keeping the country together. Here is a quote to support my point, Dwight E. Eisenhower states that “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket, signifies that in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, who are cold and not clothed.” Less than one per cent of what the world spent every year on weapons was needed to put every child into school by the year 2000 and yet it didn't happen.

I have proven my point in a simple and efficient manner.Vote con!I look forward to the opposition's response.
