> However wars should never been seen in a totally negative light

Ya of course! War is great, it pushed also industrial output and plenty of investments in researches. Plus it gets rid of the weak too! (This paragraph is sarcastic, I've to write it because many probably won't understand)

You should have a word or two with the families of those that lost their relatives in the plenty wars that lacerated this planet recently

or maybe finance yourself a trip to Iraq, Afghanistan or Syria to see how well established these countries are.

> some would argue that wars today are more todo with bringing areas of the planet up to date

Nobody argues that you're the only one. Also because it's clearly a false statement and a total misinterpretation of the war.

Have you ever had a look at other wars or you're taking Ukraine as example only because is the only one that you know about?

Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Congo, Libya. They're just a small list of countries that have been victim of wars recently. None of them is an example of how to rebuild things (or bringing them "up to date", also because they don't benefit the plenty billions of dollars that the US is sending to Ukraine.

but if your theory is really correct, why don't you move to Afghanistan and enjoy the western style of living that was brought there thanks to 20 years of war?
