KILLING is the way human beings (societies) try to prove the TRUTH. "Death to the non-believer," as we used to say when we were young. Nothing to do with "biological aggression." HAMAS kills to prove that ALLAH is real. No one has ever seen Allah. People have trouble believing human beings kill for no-thing.

Hitler killed to prove that Germany was real. Jews were killed (death to the non-believer), but so were millions of Germans. Germans died to prove the reality of Hitler's beloved nation. KILL FOR THE BELOVED ENTIT; the entity that bestows meaning upon existence. 

Forty-years of research, this is what it comes down to. True theories are simple. That which we die for becomes true by virtue of death itself. The proof of the pudding is in the dying.

We REMEMBER those who have killed the most human beings. This is the essence of "history books." The remembrance of mass-murderers. Ever since the Pharaohs. Endless murder in the name of some ideal or sacred object, plus historians to record the murders. 

Historians go into great detail, chronicling the deaths. This is how they earn a Keeping track of political dying. The more deaths, the "greater" the historical event.
The proof of the pudding is in the dying. Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot.  The specific ideology doesn't matter.

What about the First World War? This is when every nation joined together to murder their own young men. We don't remember "Douglas Haig" as well as the other "heroes" mentioned above. Collective mass-murder. Still, for the sake of creating "history."

The First World War accomplished nothing. Artillery shells and machine guns for four years. Long books record the details but are not necessary. A smokescreen. about nothing, that is, about ENDLESS DEATH. Each nation in competition to prove the truth. The proof of the pudding is in the dying.

What sad creature, human beings. We project ANGER into violent animals and pretend that the two forms of violence have something to do with one another. Nothing whatsoever. The lion is not "angry" at the antelope has nothing against the antelope. Doesn't hate the antelope. Killing to survive. 

Killing in war and genocide has no survival value. The opposite. Dead men don't pass their genes along. Looks that way. The most intelligent human beings are also the dumbest. Unaware of what they are doing. Unconscious self-destruction. Actually, conscious. But the historians won't tell the truth.

Killing to prove the depth and sincerity of our belief.
