Also I get very irritated hearing politicians on the remain side, who would be anathema if let loose with the Defence Budget trying to claim that peace has been maintained since 1945 in Europe thanks to the EU.
I assume what maintained peace was the common feeling that there was a great threat to face. One thing I wonder though is that structures seem to get bigger through history villages to cities to city-states to countries etc. It always seems to happen by war. If one chooses for it not to be done in some reasonable, equitable form doesn't that leave war as the only remaining option?
