How do we stop war? Well, maybe by making the penalty for war-mongering so severe that none would dare try it. In other words, a real peace backed by threat of real violence.
Or, to eliminate war, you would probably want to eliminate some of the driving factors.
Greed/want - Desperate situations fuel desperate measures. Eliminating poverty would probably help reduce some of the drive for war.
Education/tolerance - educating people and having people being more tolerant of each other would go a long way in reducing the desire to kill each other over arbitrary phenotypical, cultural, and philosophical differences.
Of course there are exceptions so we would need an enforcer/keeper of the peace to ensure no outliers or madmen try to take advantage of a peaceful populace.
And if you had an enforcer, you would then need a balancer so that the enforcer would not corrupt (or corrupt easily).
What or how this enforcer would be, I don't know. I suppose if it were that easy we would be doing it already.
