I do not think you understand the point. Without realizing it, what you are saying.
Do you not think if England had willingly surrendered its claim to American sovereignty and freedom was gained without war that would have been better?
What you are saying is, “it was good that Nazi Germany went to war with the world so we could have the good of the Second World war.
It is good that Japan bombed Pearl Harbor so we could have all the benefits of the war in the Pacific.
By the way, slavery was about to end in America without the Civil War, but of course it was better it be ended by means of one of the most horrible wars in history.
And war has not halted the spread of Communism, or perhaps you have not been keeping up with the news. Every hear of Obama?
I’m not opposed to war, or the shedding of blood when necessary, but it is just plain wrong to say war is good. When it is necessary, it is like an operation, a necessary evil. I am glad surgeons can remove a cancer, if necessary, but it would be better not to have the cancer. I’m glad we are capable of defending or freedoms by means of force if necessary, but it would be better if it were not necessary, and when it is, like and operation, it is not good, and it leaves terrible scars.

But that's not what you said.
You said, and I quote, "No good has ever come from any war."
That statement is false. My post illustrated that.
War is horrible, to be sure, but it is frequently the only way to stop large-scale evil.
Stopping large-scale evil is most definitely a Good Thing.
There are many men who have formed bonds of friendship through the hell of war that has lasted their entire lives. That is about the only good thing that I can think of from war.
And if we left it up to the libs, they would destroy the military however they could and then where would our country be pray tell.
