No, it won't. It didn't stop with the first World War (the war to end all wars, right?) , the second World War, the Korean War, the Vietnamese War, the Iran/Iraq war, the Seven Days War, any of the Arab/Israeli Wars, any of thousands of civil wars, Palestinian uprisings, Afghan/Soviet War, Afghan/US War, the Soviet occupation of Baltic states, Idi Amin, Kashmir, Nanking, Falklands. God, there are thousands. There are probably about 40 armed conflicts and civil wars going on right now.
For that matter it didn't stop with the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War, the American Civil War, the Franco-Prussian War, the War of 1812, the Boer War. It didn't stop with Genghis Kahn, Cromwell, Julius Caesar, Darius, Mohammed and the other Caliphs, or Pope Urban II. Nor did it stop with any number of Babylonian, Macedonian, Egyptian, Hebrew, Assyrian, Chinese, Mayan, or Aztec Kings.
This is the way the world is. Arm thyself!
