For the past two-hundred thousand years, which is the entire history of humanity, we have been at war with each other. Endless senseless violence engulfing every continent with no race, religion or region spared from its futile gory grasp. Then it dawned on me, we have never had a year without war, we have never circled the sun without killing each other in the name of religion, patriotism or commercial interests.
Our plan at worldwithoutwar.org is simple, as any revolutionary idea should be:
We want this generation to be the first to experience a year without war. This new peaceful world would be impossible to attain unless we first remedy the cause of our endless quarrels – the business model of war that has been unknowingly thrust upon the citizens of the world, what we now call the military industrial complex.
We propose we literally cut this senseless arms race in half, severing its stranglehold on humanities constructive endeavours. We aim to cut worldwide military budgets in half by 2020. These huge monetary savings should then not be used to balance budgets, or to bail out corrupt banking institutions, but instead be used for projects that will benefit future generations. This will not only help the citizens of the world build forward thinking infrastructure– but also inspire future generations, allowing them to realise that our future possibilities are endless.
What the mind can conceive it can achieve.
Through the use of crowdfunding and donations via our website; worldwithoutwar.org we hope to educate humanity about our vision, we hope to build a solid treaty agreement document with the best international lawyers available and most importantly we will tirelessly lobby the governments of the world to sign on the dotted line and help create a better future for all.
Many great statesmen throughout the last century have warned us about developing war into a business. It is time we the citizens of the world listen to these great minds and take charge of our own future, reversing this horrendous cycle of meaningless wars.
We need to create the civilisation our ancestors envisioned and the future we all deserve by reducing our wasteful spending on our militaries, only then can we hope to have the first year in our history without war.
