The whole world seems delusional and eager for war, sadly.

Many of them don't know what a war is.

That's because they've grown up with Call of Duty on their gaming consoles. I remember watching Vietnam footage with Walter Cronkite almost every evening during the last few years of the war.

Heck, then even the embedded journalists during Desert Storm.

Unfortunately the video game generation think war is a game and have no real concept of what it is really like.

As part of the video game generation, I have some notion of what war is.
It messes people up, it kills innocent people. Nuclear war is even worse. I've seen, read and watched so many simulations of nuclear explosions and their effects that sometimes I can be walking around and just imagine electronics failing, coupled with a blinding flash and intense heat, then a massive tsunami of debris coming towards me.

I've never been to war, but from all I know I can safely say that I would never ever want to go to war. Whether it's conventional or nuclear, it's just a sad and violent way to achieve political goals and I wish that it didn't happen.

Also, in a way playing video games has made me more tolerant of other cultures and war seems even more alien to me than ever.
I have fond memories of playing with Egyptians, Russians, Japanese, Lithuanians, French, Americans etc...
It's given me an appreciation of other cultures and the knowledge that we're all in the same boat, we all have similar goals, we're all human. Russians & Chinese get into relationships and have families and laugh at jokes just like us.
It honestly puzzles me why war is a thing, because when you actually sit down, chat and play with the other side you see that they're just like you!
