We never signed a treaty saying we wouldn't simple as that. Besides at that we aren't a repressive theocratic regime that knowingly aides and supports terrorism

Yes, you are correct, evil exists, and America is no better than Iran, Iraq or N Korea in terms of "evil", as has been proven for the past 50 years. Unfortunately, it's your type of hateful and angry mentality that initiates conflicts which escalates to senseless wars. If only humanity believed in peace and "bunnies and rainbow sunshine’s" rather than destroying our fellow man, we wouldn't be riddled with violence, hatred and death. Maybe instead of focusing massive amounts of time, energy and money on destroying and killing to solve issues, we could use that energy as positive and try and learn how and why we have so much violence in the world, why people or groups possess so much hatred and how can we prevent it. Answering violence with violence will end up with violence. It will continue to be a never ending circle, and this is not a way to solve issues.

Pacifism is a disease, it's a weak mentality. First off we are better then Iraq and Iran. How many people have been purposely put to death because they disagree with our leaders? I don't recall us openly and knowingly supporting terrorism such as Hezbollah or Hamas or Al Qaeda. How many people have repressesd? Oh that's right, in the last 5 years we have freed over 50 million people from murderous repressive regimes, motives aside, the numbers don't lie!
And yes it would be nice if everyone thought of fluffy bunny sunshine, but guess what bub, reality dictates that there are some fucked up people in the world who don't. You try tea time with Hitler, I'll just go and drop a boot in his ass ok? What are you going to do when some deranged asshole pulls a strap on you? Put a tulip in the barrel?
The reality us human beings are fucked up creatures, you can work peaceably though, tell me how that works for you.

If you have a dog that is not behaving properly, do you shoot it in the head or do you train it to learn? We, as humanity, must take it step by step in order to reach our goals, and war is a never ending train ride to nowhere but our own self-destruction.

War and training dogs are different, animals are not cognitive assfucks like us. Evil and war are a reality and part of our nature, that's something you must realize and deal with it.

Unfortunately, you are right, I am more than likely living in a fantasy world in which peace is possible, and in reality, it is an impossibility as long as we have people who believe violence should be solved with more violence. It saddens me to know that our existence will likely cease due to our own greed and hatred. I hope it doesn’t take a humanity-ending massive disaster beyond any control to make us realize killing each other is indeed senseless when viewing the big picture…because unfortunately by then, it would be too late.

That's a real tear jerker, but as I've said on the boards before, Idealism has no place in politics, you must realize the reality of the situation. We've been struggling with the same old bullshit since the dawn of time, things aren't going to change anytime soon.
