War is the supreme failure of nations to find areas of agreement. Eventually nations must learn that the methods of scientific investigation can establish closer areas of agreement and workable solutions than the methods of politics which have failed to serve the well being of most people. Remember, politicians are elected to keep things as they are not to change them. The young people of today will be the guardians of tomorrow. If they fail to accept the responsibilities of their own future others will do the thinking for them. War is the supreme failure of nations to find areas of agreement.
