I would argue that war occurs when one party perceives that they will draw some benefit from attacking the other party. If we want to end war we must remove that benefit, or counteract the benefit with a greater cost.
We could end war tomorrow if we wished to do so. Simply give each nation a dozen ICBMs. The benefit that any country would receive would be completely outweighed by the prospect of a dozen of their cities being obliterated.
