Peace One Day movie

The big ideas I got from watching this video are that we have to make peace. If just for one day everybody got to stop, put their guns down and think about what they are doing, then maybe they will finally notice that it is completely stupid to have war. We are acting like 3 year old fighting like that. There is no meaning behind war. If only everybody could understand that it is completely pointless and that you don't gain anything from war but loose things.

If there is still war and no peace, then what's the use of living? YOU DON'T GAIN ANYTHING FROM WAR BUT LOOSE. You loose your family, childhood, freedom, life. People are dying out there for no reason! Well actually there is a reason, its because people are being stupid and not listening that war should end. They really have to understand that all this is stupid and useless. If we have peace and war stops, then countries will spend their money on things that actually matter like the MDG's.

Usually when a country has war the country is less developed than a country who doesn't. This is because when war happens everything gets destroyed and the government can't concentrate on the MDG's, it has to concentrate on making war stop. An example is that schools get shut down so kids cannot have an education which is one of the MDG's.

The hidden costs of war are that hospitals get shut down so if people get sick they have nowhere to go. If it is a disease like dengue people will die at home with no one to help or cure them. Also if there is war kids cannot go to school because their parents won't let them walk outside while there is a war going on so they won't have an education. Another hidden cost of war is that people can't go to the supermarket to get food and water either because the war is going on or because it has been destroyed.

I think we should all stop war together and help the ones who need help. We have to stop acting childish, think for a while, grow up and stop war. I will say this again once and for all:
"WE DO NOT GAIN ANYTHING FROM WAR BUT LOOSE THINGS."- Marie-Benedicte Capuano
