WAR AND MENTAL ILLNESS IN CIVILISED SOCIETIES

§ 1. Introduction
There is every indication that the world is changing and the civilised as well as the illiterate societies are becoming more conscious ever before concerning the stupidity the latter that had been by investing all their resources in buying weapons. War had been fought among them, and even people of the same descent had been manipulated against each other to wage war, which had enabled those rich nations to get richer, by the purchase of their weapons. But there comes a time when the fools must wake up from their slumber and ask themselves what have we done? Why have we been fools all the time and fought among ourselves while other nations already rich make billions of dollars on us due to our stupidity?

The present article has the aim to call attention to those poor nations who had allowed themselves to be ruled by stupid and dubious leaders that collaborated with the rich nations that used their money to develop their own countries. These nations that were already rich had their own agendas when you spent all your revenue to purchase weapons and fought your neighbour that you could have made peace with to allow your children and wives to live in peace. You had fought your own descendants while the world laughed at you all the time with little sympathy. It is time for you to put your differences aside and make peace so that your wives, children, elderly, and the weak among you could have the taste of modern civilisation. For those developing nations that had not known anything about development, it is time to plan your cities and development as a whole and concentrate on those things that would make your citizens healthy and intelligent.

§ 2. Availability of Weapons
The rich countries and those that manufacture weapons (“war ancestors” or “fathers”) have enough money to invest in the production of these weapons. They have a target and, that is, to fill your countries with these weapons which you shall buy and use them to make war among yourselves. Since in their culture they do not have any beliefs about certain things concerning how people could be punished when something wrong have been committed by them, they have nothing that boarder their consciences. This lack of beliefs make it that they shall continue to manufacture and sell these weapons so far as countries patronise them, unless those countries decide to put an end to the buying. Therefore, nations that had been buyers should look for a proper manner whereby they could receive therapy concerning their addiction to these weapons, which bring sorrow and tribulations into their quarters and also leave their citizens impoverished in their communities. There is a sizeable amount of the revenues that go into the purchasing of these weapons that their presence hunt your citizens, especially those mines that you plant in your countries, that which after the wars or civil wars are over, they continue to threaten your communities. Get rid off these weapons for they suck your riches and do not make you healthier or richer!

§ 3. Cherish the Supreme Values
The rich nations that consider themselves civilised have always viewed war differently. The values of these people are different. The fact that they are more civilised than you do does not make their values better than yours, or what you have in your societies. For instance, concerning these rich and civilised nations their manner of engaging in war had been patterned after the barbarians of antiquity that dreamed and yearned for war at every minute in their lives. These barbarians were naive and had no understanding of many happenings of nature. Some of their beliefs are being followed at present by the civilised men without them reviewing these outdated myths and trying to match them with the pace of modern civilisation. The barbarians like the primitive, regarded war as the “mark of civilisation,” “distinctiveness,” “superiority,” and “strength” of their nations. Presently, these things are not considered as genuine values that the civilised men should cherish; they are outdated. Therefore, now people do not regard these ideals as “fit” for the modern men that respect dignity and the preservation of human life. We should not think, “all that glitters is gold” but, on the other hand, let us remind ourselves that there are some values our forefathers have taught to us to live with them, for example, to cherish the human life more than anything on earth.

§ 4. War has been Part and Parcel of the Rich Nations

Those nations that manufacture weapons (War fathers) have always had wars and have regarded them as something “special” and this could be seen in the number of burial grounds devoted to their people that fought and died through wars. These “heroes” which in War Psychiatry some of them could be regarded as “criminals of higher calibre” are buried in these burial grounds. These places are sites for worships, where they flock there constantly to pay respects to their dead and those they consider as “heroes” (some of them in modern terms criminals). This is only something the rich nations adore and continue to cherish in their societies. Because of these incessant wars and violence, there have been a number of psychiatric disorders that had resulted aside from the problems which urbanisation had caused in these rich nations. There are a number of people including women, men, the elderly, and the weak that suffer from many different disorders, such as anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive, hysteria, schizophrenia, psychotic, panic disorders, norman psychosis, winmust syndrome, politicomadness, filialdum, SCP disorders, AZC, Occupatioonis disorders, miljödisorders, superwunsken, and many others. Apart from these there are many that reveal paranoid symptoms, delusions, hallucination, auditory hallucinations, serial murderers, rapists and etc. It is likely that some of these illnesses are behind their obsession with “superiority” and the “super race” myths they adhere to among some of their ignorant citizens. Many rampant and tumultuous wars on the planets by some of these nations that are filled with the Albinos could be explained from the point of view of having numerous psychiatric disorders among them. These make it that sometimes they should look for some places around the globe to release their anxiety, strong paranoid symptoms, and stress that are commonly experienced in their environments.

§ 5. New World Order
Presently, there is a New World order, which means the thinking is shifting drastically from “militarism” to the development of “economic power.” Many nations around the globe both the rich and the poor are embracing this new ideals which shall rid the world off from barbaric wars on earth. But this conception is not going to be easy because there are still some madmen out there that are still leaders of certain countries that still adhere to the antediluvian principles of “heroic wars” and “holy wars.” There are some of these rich nations that are still holding on to the “illusory superiority” they had enjoyed before when the world was not ripe and at the same was filled with dubious and corrupt leaders from Cairo to South Africa. In their delusions, they are still the “best” and “superior” and therefore should be given the chance to rule or lead through their manipulations that were not detected by the people of the world before. The best approach is for the world to listen to the kind and new emerging countries, that do not consider themselves as superior but equal in partnership, to make the world but not only their own countries, the best place to live and grow old.

§ 6. Concluding remarks
In inferring from this article, I shall reverently advice the poor countries, non-warlike countries, developing nations, and all nations that believe in peace and one unique world to:

• investigate how weapons are secretly shipped into your countries

• study the manipulations that lead to civil wars and wars among your citizens

• shy away in investing in weapons in order to have enough funds for development in the countries

• study on how you could build a strong unity among the different tribes in your country

• become conscious concerning development and the use of modern technology

• concentrate on building infrastructure in your countries: roads, railways, housing, recreation centres, centre for the elderly, etc

• make peace with all the neighbouring boarders in your country
