There are no benifits of wars , only losses... losses to humanity as well as well as to property
War require heavy expenditure which will burden any coutnry how ever rich that country be and this whole burden is transfered to comon man and the worst of all is that innocents are killed
Say no to war

If it was not for war we would not have any of the freedoms that we have today. Also we would have world wide terrorism. Aren't you glad that Suddam Hussein is in jail? He was terrorising his own people and taking their money and don't you think that would spill over to you if that behavior was excepted. We need to support our troops and know that they enlisted because they believe in the cause of freedom.

That is a very compelling question. Because there are so many people involved in a war, it creates a very complex situation. There has to be two opposing forces in every war. For the defenders, it may not be a desirable encounter, but, I'm sure, it is preferable to being ruled by a foreign force. For the aggressors, it undoubtedly, is not beneficial to the common soldier. But, to the instigator of the war (usually the leader of a country or a group with a cause) it may be very beneficial. An example is our Vice President, who is adding millions of dollars to the millions he already has. It may also be to bolster one's ego or domain. There are many examples of that throughout history.
There is much to be considered in answering that question. But for us common people, it almost universally is considered to be a waste of money and more importantly a waste of precious lives.
So much good could be achieved if the resources applied to war were used in ways beneficial to humans and the world. But, it seems that war is part of human nature that we can not overcome. It's truly unfortunate.

the benefit of war is to reduce the earths's idea.(religion.economics) There has always been wars wheter it is between friends or between coutries.the winner of the war not only wins it for himself but also manages to impliment his ideas onto the loser.this also called as the survival of the fittest

No use by wars except loss of money, strength, love and faith, no one could acheived their goals by war, it is possible through love and sacrifice
non voilence, charity, these are the good weapons to acheive goals.
War is blind it doesn't know about the human values. They must think before they perform.

I personally beleive that you will not even 1 person who can tell you some benefits of war. I too cannot mention any benefits. According to me wars just bring destruction with it. It just destroys mankind and property. It ruins everything. If the past wars are taken as reference we can see that extent of the destructions the war can create. I now want only peace on earth.

Wars bring nothing but deaths, destruction, devastation and wounds. Money are lost, people lose their loved ones, everything spoils. There is nothing good in war.
