“Men are fighting... because they are convinced that the extermination of adversa…” — Ludwig von Mises

Wars of aggression are popular nowadays with those nations convinced that only victory and conquest could improve their material well-being.

The state can be and has often been in the course of history the main source of mischief and disaster.

Modern society, based as it is on the division of labor, can be preserved only under conditions of lasting peace.

War can really cause no economic boom, at least not directly, since an increase in wealth never does result from destruction of goods.
