    “in real life, it come true.”

    Not too common.

    Police witness hundreds of minor infractions of the law every day and most know they aren’t worth fighting over just as prosecutors often do not prosecute minor infractions and judges do what officers should do: let them off with a warning. They all know they have bigger issues needing attention.

    “No, Agnes. I do not recommend it for females of any age. And every day would kill some of them.”

    “There was a war over soccer”

    The 1967 Century High vs Baker High football game led to an impressive fight after the game including coaches and fans and players.

    Waaaaaay too serious.

    “Hitler couldn’t win a war on two fronts on basically the same continent.”

    Actually, he could have. Most of his lightening war tactics worked by hitting hard before opponents were ready to fight back. Had he had better weather or more weapons and trained troops, he could have defeated the Soviet Union before anyone was ready to oppose him elsewhere. Stalin made it possible be slaughtering so many of his officers. Quite often he would defeat a government and the troops going in to retain the conquered people went in with mules and wagons since much of the army was less well supplied.

    The outcome is not certain at the onset.

    (In a similar manner Putin expected cold weather to allow his invasion to be easy and he depended on quick surrender and others standing by doing nothing — other than our former President praising his genius. It was reasonable but wrong.)

    “we are taught that wars are fought to settle disputes”

    Wars are fought because some are willing to kill for a goal (see below)and others are willing to kill to stop them.

    (below) Unite/reunite/conquer nations, end slavery, avenge insults, obtain needed — or at least desired — resources, retain pride/honor/standing, make money, kill those you dislike, impose a religion, impose an ideology, distract subjects,

    Someone will think up another cause or two. For any given war different participants may have very different reasons.
