Question

If all soldiers were rounded up and killed, would there be peace on earth?

Answer 1

Criminals are more violent than soldiers.  Soldiers train for war but pray for peace.   Criminals are just street terrorists looking for the next victim.

So round up all the criminals and kill them.  Then I think you might have something.

Answer 2

It's the leaders that need to be rounded up not the soldiers. In most countries young men are taken out of their homes and forced into the military.Have a think before you post such questions. many homes have lost loved ones in war.

how very very dare you...... with your bad name.... Are you named after an insect or something

Answer 3

You are not very intelligent are you?  The soldiers don't start the wars, genius, it's the big fat guys that we voted for.

Answer 4

You're stupid. You have single handily made everyone dumber by asking that. I'm in the Army now and that is an insult. Grow up...

Answer 5

Warfare and battle is as ancient as the history of mankind.  It's human nature to desire a want or a need, and that desire comes in conflict with other people's desires.  As long as someone desires something that another has there will always be conflict (positive and negative).

So, no if you did what is asked in your question or did the same to all world leaders there would still be wars and battles going on.  Violence is a part of human nature, whether you believe me or not is up to you.

Answer 6

Since someone would have to kill all the soldiers, no.

Soldiers don't cause wars anymore than firemen cause fires or the police cause crime. Soldiers are professionals trained to defend a nation and carry out national policy directives. You want to find someone to blame for wars and violence? Look to the religious, political, and social leaders.

Answer 7

I'd like to see you try.  We'd win.  We've got better weapons!  (AND better training)  Not only that, but you'd be commiting the murder of so many people who never did anything but their job.  For crying out loud.

Answer 8

No, because the families of these soldiers would be grieving and most likely would protest because the killing of these soldiers were unjust and unfair.

Answer 9

to answer your question.no. soldiers are NOT the cause of the worlds wars! if anything,their peace keepers..I can tell you from experience that no one wants peace more then a soldier.

Answer 10

No.

The only way to achieve true peace on earth is to change the nature of man.  When people stop having an innate desire to be better, to prove their beliefs are right, to wield control over others... then there can be peace.

Answer 11

Let me ask you a question. If all the b*****d world leaders were rounded up and killed, would there be peace on earth?

Answer 12

Of course not. Think about it, then all the familys of the soldiers would want revenge on the people who killed their family member. I know that if someone killed someone in my family i would want to kill them. It would make even more war appear.

Answer 13

No, the soldiers are not to blame they are just following orders (exceot in military dictatorships). The best way is to kill all the rich people (wars are for them to protect or increase their wealth/ power) and the political class that works for them.

Answer 14

Well, let's give it a go and see if it works.

( Obviously nobody understands I was being sarcastic).

Answer 15

That was a stupid question... How can you expect peace after u kill (soldiers). Peace can never come after u kill some one. Soldiers are also human beings [:)]

Answer 16

No, it is not the soldiers but the men sat in their comfy offices ordering the destruction of the world whilst coming to no self harm that the world could do without.

Answer 17

Its not the soldiers causing the lack of peace, its the masters and commanders giving them bad information and no other choice financially BUT to join an army.

Answer 18

No, because then the terrorists would have nobody to fight them and then they would take over the world.  Exactly who would be responsible for this mass killing?  I'm guessing they would consider themselves peace activists after murdering over two million innocent service members as well as millions more around the world.  After you kill every single US troop, why stop there?  Kill the police too since some of them are corrupt.  Afterwords, when the gangs and criminals get out of control and overthrow the country we can wait for bin Laden and his goons to come over here and kill us all.

Great idea, troll.

Answer 19

Nope, because, who did this massive killing? The "peace activists"??? They just became what they incorrectly perceived the Troops to be!

It's not the Troops, in fact, we want Peace, but a True Peace, not just a waiting game until the next bad guys rear their ugly head.. living in fear of "what next" is NOT Peace.  

Answer 20

no it`s not the soldier that`s the problem its the evil force that drives that soldier into where, when, and how to destroy. But sometimes durning disasters they do some humane things so they can sleep at night.

Answer 21

Not at all.  Remember you have all the chickenhawk neo-cons in all branches of the U.S. Government.  They will find another way to wage war if they can't get soldiers to do it for them.

Answer 22

the problem is not on the soldiers my friend. the problem is their leaders, and who create their leaders ---- his/her citizens (this situation also applies to all dictators). What kind of leader for a country got what kind of citizens.  

The only peace on earth can be reached if and only if all human were being terminated.... unfortunately .... dont think it will happen so as peace on earth.

Answer 23

If all the soldiers were rounding up and killed. It would be worse off, as we would have no one to fighting to stop terrorists who would than have free reign.

Answer 24

No because soldiers and weapons are supposed to keep the peace, so without  them we would be defensless.

Answer 25

Soldiers vs civilians rounding us up to kill us how would that make peace on earth  (besides I think soldiers would win).  There will always be a power struggle between mankind

Answer 26

I think I found a new stupidest question ever, The biggest majority of Soldiers go into the military with the hopes and prayers of never having to see combat, and make a better income /life for themselves and their families.

It is the policy makers and the heads of state that decide to go to war. Even in countries other than the USA, most soldiers enter the military for this reason, or because they were forced to. Soldiers follow orders. There may be a few wackos that enjoy it. but they are the minority. and Yes I know from personal experience

Answer 27

Soldiers are not the problem.

The problem with peace in the world is when people somehow think its better to kill other people, like your idea of killing all Soldiers.

If you kill off all Soldiers, what is stop someone from killing off all red-headed people, or all people of a certain religion, or all people of a certain race... after all, you set that precedence with your action of killing off all people of certain profession.  You are just justifying genocide as a means.

Answer 28

Round up all the Politicians and Dictators-then you may stand a chance at Peace!

Answer 29

Thats a really bad question.....

Soldiers save the lives of good people too....

It depends what soldiers your talking about....

Answer 30

And just who would no the rounding up and killing?  Would not those people be a threat to world peace?

George Washington once said that the best way to ensure peace is to prepare for war; therefore, soldiers are the best way to keep peace in the world.

Do you know what the major cause of violence in the world is?  People with radical and intolerant ideas like yours.

Answer 31

No ., its not the soldiers that really do the killing, its who they work for. And even if all the soldiers were killed, there would also be more, and more and more..........
