It was a war desired by the bankers, so it was almost inevitable. It would have ended in a stalemate in 1917 with only minor shifts in borderlines (as had all previous European wars) had Wilson not prodded Congress to declare war on Germany. As a result, Germany was forced into a bad surrender, leading to a bad piece,piece leading to the rise of Adolph Hitler and WWII. Not only a mostly wrong analysis but once again the kook speaketh and the crackpot of the day award is once again yours. A few tips: Your "minor shift in borders" is totally wrong. The Germans were well inside French Borders at one time some twenty five miles from Paris, not to mention practically the whole of Belgium. The US entry into the war merely accelerated the inevitable. The German Navy had mutinied, there were starvation riots in the street as well as in the ranks. Germany's defeat the Royal Navy blockade where not a single merchant vessel either left of arrived in a German port after June of 1914. Please tell us you don't teach history....or grammar...

God loves the Infantry, Amen... And the engineers! God bless you. May His angels guard you and your fellows. Roger that. My wife and kids run a single star version of that flag. The engineers I've worked with have been hard working, life saving warriors. Best wishes for you, your spouse and your sons. Mike

It was a war desired by the bankers Those applying the same answer to diverse questions understand neither.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

International bankers have been behind, to one degree or another, most Western wars of the last several centuries.

Politicians use the political solution of the violence of war to force their will upon others thereby, solving a political problem or so they think. Usually what happens is the politican crates a bigger problem. The international financier funds both sides of the war thereby creating enormous profits for themselves. In the past, and maybe still so today, the international financier was also the industrialist who provided the war materials to fight the war to both sides.
Fortunately, for us wiser and more enlighten types, there appears to be an unlimited supply of the stupid and ignorant among the citizenry to fight the wars started by politicians.

Jorge, you beat me to it. me ten.
A government is the most dangerous threat to man�s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.

the overuse and misapplication of the word has lent it towards being diluted in it's meaning imo
Great point. I think about this every time I see a TV guide. Towing Wars, Storage Wars, Parking Wars, Swamp Wars, Cupcake Wars, Food Wars, Junkyard Wars, etc, etc, etc. We might not love "war" in its traditional sense, but we sure as hell seem to love conflict.
