...young people!

or, to be less hyberbolic, one of the most pronounced correlative factors in most wars, especially idealogical ones, and / or periods of political upheaval - is a disproportionately large number of youth in the populations of participants, especially aggressors.

from the protestant reformers to the tamil tigers (and their sinhalese opponents) - revolutionaries, colonial expansionalists, the lot - have been characterised by bulges in their youth demographic.

handily, right now, the islamic world, and the chinese, are in the middle of such a swelling.

when you think about this, it all makes sense - you don't often see members of the salvation army juking it out with msps outside holyrood, but don't these young beggars cause a bit of bother? extreme politics is also disproportionately a hobby of the young.

the ramifications of this are surely clear; the aspiration to a stable, integrated society surely demands that we ban young people - right now.

And important first step would be to purge our education system of such a divisive and troublesome element - young people should have NO place in our schools and universities!

And finally, isn't it so ironic that the young blow hards are, even more than their older peers, so fond of blaming the world's ills on everybody else!

Interesting.

Could you name a few Wars caused by young people, and show how they caused them?
