War; what is it good for?

Unknown
"When war, as in these days in Iraq, threatens the fate of humanity, it is ever more urgent to proclaim, with a strong and decisive voice, that only peace is the road to follow to construct a more just and united society. Violence and arms can never resolve the problems of man."- Pope John Paul II

The 2003 Iraqi Invasion can easily claim to be one of the most highly opposed wars in modern history. Despite all these global voices in opposition, it went out. It still goes on. And not just in Iraq.

Art through the epochs as sought to not only to question , both home and foreign soil conflicts, of the moment but, say a collective NO to war as neccesary byproduct of human existance.
