    ...Oddly enough though, we also cannot ignore the fact that war is a truly HUMAN construct,as it demands higher intentional intelligence for it is strategical and organized. I believe that as long as humanity does not learn to rise above these 'evils' we will continue to face wars,inevitably. However I also believe in the goodness of mankind. We must always remember that humanity can also generate wonders such as love, compasion, solidarity,art, etc. In the end it all comes down to our own choices. So, as John Lennon once mentioned in a timeless classic... Imagine all the people living life in peace! Greets to everyone and thanks for the participation on this topic.

    WOW! Thanks for all the ideas! This is a very controversial topic indeed. I understand a lot of the points made on this issue. I'd just like to state my feelings on it. I believe wars are a manifestation of humanity's most negative characteristics: greed, ignorance, arrogance, evil, the list goes on. We cannot deny the innateness of these feeling caused by our animal instincts mixed in with a bit of first-level rationality. We can justify wars as much as we want but the bottomline is when we kill each other to dominate and impose our points of view, we are giving in to our most primitive instincts... (CONT)

    It's alright to dwell on the bad side of it, I've got to write about war in general... human foolishness is an interesting point to develop. Thanks for the contribution!

    "look for" se utiliza para buscar algo o a alguien... I need to look for a job, I will look for you... "look up" se utiliza para buscar en libros de referencia (diccionarios, directorios, listas, etc.) ... I looked up the meaning of the word, look me up on Facebook. Una frase muy comun es: Look me up (when you're in town)... es como una invitación 'buscame cuando visites este lugar'. Espero te ayude :)

    It's also very common to use the expression "I want to kill 'someone'" as a way to express extreme dislike, anger or annoyance. Example: "I wanted to kill my husband when I saw him with another woman"
