There will never be peace as long as war = profits. Try and separate a greedy person from their profits and you will have a fight of unimaginable proportions on your hands.

This is horrible.... I wonder what's up with our specie.. Why do we use our intelligence for destruction? OMG... Freakin war robots! This is like Star War stuff... Thanks Arlo for posting this. We need to know these things.... Frankly, I wonder if we will ever have peace again on this planet... It seems that we are in fact, "wired for war."
