War never changes.
Old farts promote it but the young pay the bill.
So now I am an old fart myself... the words of my Father come back to me. It is all a game for the powerful to play and for the powerless to have to live.
When will the US ever learn to abandon Empire? When will they ever learn?
Oil keeps flowing out of the South China Sea. The same resources that the Japanese used from Java and the Siam that are "new discovered" in 2010 by Shell Oil. The commerce is the reason for war sometimes.
If China or India or anyone else threatens the anticipated Opium production of Myanmar/SW China, I expect more war in that "CBI" theater in the future.
Commerce flows even in war - business is business.
This is a bleak concept and a bankrupt world view.

Read not to contradict and confute;
nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse;
but to weigh and consider.
