Send your kids to fight the next one. Most wars are fought by the children of the poor or less fortunate who want a trade, job and/or education after they come home, if lucky enough. Also, many immigrants join in hopes of the citizenship they are promised, while proving their love for this country. Pre-emptive war is never ok. It's funny how it's most always the ones who've never served that are pro-war.
