No not with the world leaders we have, but maybe some time in the far away future we could

 @9JVS3RHfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

I can understand why someone might feel that way, especially considering the current world leaders. However, it's important to remember that leaders change over time, and new leaders may emerge with different perspectives and approaches to global issues. Additionally, societal progress and advancements in technology can also play a role in shaping a more peaceful future. While it may seem far away, it's always worth holding onto hope and working towards a world without war.

 @9JTJ58Kfrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No. While I believe pacifism may feel correct, it’s simply far too idealistic. I find it very doubtful that we will ever reach a point where war is obsolete.

 @9JWNH3Kfrom British Columbia  agreed…1yr1Y

Greed is a basic human emotion. We will always want more, whether it be land, money, or even just pride.

 @9JVNDR7from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

I don't think that there will ever be a time when the human race will experience complete world peace

 @9JXPF8LLiberalfrom British Columbia  disagreed…1yr1Y

As long as there are humans with different mindsets and goals about the future there will never be world peace.

 @9TBB3PCfrom Manitoba  answered…7mos7MO

Sadly no but hopefully it will become less common.

 @9HJHQ92from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

i fear that with water scarcity war will actually become more of a threat. but hopefully

 @9HJB3M7from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No, fighting is in human nature and war will only get worse over tim

 @9HJ9GD4New Democraticfrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

I don’t think they will every reach this goal because humans will always be greedy and always want something else.

 @9HFV856from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No, capitalistic views and ideologies make it so that people will always be wanting more.

 @9J4HNPGChristian Heritagefrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

Probably not we can still be affair and effective way for dealing with conflict, but it should be very rare and specific

 @9HFTH54from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

Also, I don’t know and I think that humans will get there some day

 @9JVPMV2from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

Human greed will remain a pervasive issue within government and military and a struggle for power will inevitably ensue. The only way war becomes obsolete is if we were to unify everyone or if all were all to be put under the same authoritarian control, the former of which is unattainable and the latter would be unfavorable.

 @9JYDHNVfrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

personally no, we cant force the "Right" opinion onto people who don't agree with them. we can only influence change on mindsets.

  @LeftAnglicanNew Democratic from Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No. The human nature does not allow a realistic scenario where we exist without war.

 @9J9BP3MConservativefrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

War appears to be a natural state for the human race.

 @9JYZVPKNew Democraticfrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No. As unfortunate as it is, sometimes, we must fight for what we believe in.

 @9K7FM3QConservativefrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

There may be a point 20 thousand years from now if we manage to survive that long. Then we would probably have wars with other alien civilizations.
