The reason why I choosed this topic is because I am curious about why Wars continue. I wonder if the mistakes(War actions) that happened in World War 1 and 2 repeated in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. I interviewed a friend of mine who knows alot about war(s). And I found out some of the War actions in World War 1 and 2 has repeated in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. For example, In World War 1 and 2 and our recent wars we had under estimation of enemy troop strength. We had really no clear after math plan. And most of all we waited to long to enter a war.
There are some things we could have done better. We could have observed the signs better.: What was happening in the war, what we needed to do to stop things worsing. We could have gone to war eariler or at least plan an evasion earlier.
Depends by person and/or prespective but history probably repeats itself because most people do not learn from their mistakes. Example: America did not learn that staying out of war does not help. However, we do not have to get in every war: Just the ones that are very important and are related to America. Some of the reasons why America doesn't learn from its(theirs) mistakes is because some people alter history to achieve a certain goal or agenda; many people find an answer of what they want.
A question wondered in my mind while I was thinking about this topic. The answer depends of your view. So, why do things turn out the way they do? Like I said that answer depends. It depends of your views. It is simply fate or simply a result of many happenings.
