Aw'right you ugly mugs, to battle!

Sorry, been playing TF2. But it got me thinking, what is this major fascination with war? Most new video games are about war, lots of music coming out is about war as well as books, tv shows and movies. My question is; why are we enthralled with such a horrible subject and why do we decide to recreate the worst times in history? Does it not encourage younger generations to fight in wars and risk their lives for frivolous arguments? Or maybe that's what its all about. Maybe It's simply propaganda aimed to entice the pigs to the slaughter. But I digress, I do play my fair share of such games, listen to such music and watch such movies. It's turned into the norm for modern society, but does that not make us uncivilised the fact we enjoy the subject of war?
