The End of War?
Gregg Easterbrook, Base10's favorite sportswriter (he's actually a writer who sometimes writes about sports for NFL.com) has a really good piece in The New Republic about some recent studies that suggests war is going the way of the Edsel. What with the rise of democracy around the world, maybe we should have foreseen this. Of particular interest is the fact that when the the researchers went to UN diplomats with the results, they were laughed at. The article is worth a read, and Base10 might actually seek out the report.

Base10 suspects that we have a way to go yet, but can only hope that the conclusion of this study is true.
