Not to be insensitive, but the never-ending wars in the Middle East (Israel, Gaza, Iran and the rest) lend weight to this quote from the movie Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024).

“There always was, is, and will be war. The Sumerian fought the Elamite. The Saxon fought the Viking. And so the histories grew… the wars of the roses, the oranges, the opium wars. The one day, the six day, the thousand day. North against south, east against west. The first, second, third, countless wars of religion and righteous belief. The oil wars, water wars, a tri-nation nuclear war. The battle of the boom towns. And now, my dears, the forty day wasteland war. Eyes for eyes, teeth for teeth. Rage fueled by grief.”
