More wars have probably been started by the truth. Nice slogan, though. The Civil War was started by unreconciled differences, clearly understood by both sides.
Most wars would never start if both sides could have foreseen the outcome in advance. The Civil War, World War I, and II, for example. Only when one side has an overwhelming advantage in force would a war start. Nato was founded to prevent the Soviets from calculating that they could pick off European states one by one, without U.S. interference.
"While mainstream media is keeping mum on the release of the torrent insurance, the internet is buzzing with theories and speculation. While the organization puts the dump at 88 gigabytes of data, users are reporting it is actually 94.09 gigabytes. This would make it bigger than the 2010 data dump, which leaked more than 250,000 U.S. government documents extending back to the mid-1960s. According to data storage firm Catalyst, an average of 3,124 documents are contained in one gigabyte as of 2014. WikiLeaks’s 94.09 gigabyte data torrent insurance file, then, may have more than 293,000 documents, which would make it the biggest leak in the organization’s history." - inquisitr.com, R.
