This must be one of the most disgusting things I have ever read on this list. War is something that always results in tremendous amount of pain and suffering on all sides (not to mention the effect it tends to have on the economies of the parties involved); the fact that you consider war preferable over peace makes me want to throw up. There is already a war waging in the Middle East: Israel vs. the Palestinians. How is that preferable to peace? If you want even more war in the region, it is almost certainly going to be a front of the various Arab states joined against Israel -- in which case the sheer force of numbers could very well lead to the total destruction of Israel. I hope that if and when that war you want breaks out, someone will put you on the first plane to the front line -- because only then will you realise how utterly horrible and wrong your suggestion is. Has there not been enough suffering yet in the Middle East? Do you really want to see even more people (Arabs *and* Jews) maimed or killed, more infrastructure destroyed? Because that is exactly what will happen when that war you advocate breaks out.
