Russia Ukraine war, page-35668

Smedley may have had some valid things to say, but the reality is that war has been around for a very long time. War isn’t something invented by the US. (It takes two to tango they say, and since both sides are fighting hard (‘buying into the racket’, and have not achieved their objectives, the war will continue.)

The earliest evidence of prehistoric warfare is a Mesolithic cemetery in Jebel Sahaba, which has been determined to be approximately 14,000 years old. About forty-five percent of the skeletons there displayed signs of violent death.[6] Since the rise of the state some 5,000 years ago,[7] military activity has occurred over much of the globe. The advent of gunpowderand the acceleration of technological advances led to modern warfare.
