No because,the main world leaders cannot stop being greedy, but this not in their makeup. Take Iraq peace will not come until all forces pull out our troops being killed unnecessarily,after a pull out there would be civil war after which maybe Iraq will end up as two or three states. now in the case of Yugoslavia there can never be a complete pullout because in my mind this country has always been a leading producer of terrorists and this will be very hard to stop as is being proven just now,So sorry your stuck with it.

That is a good question.The answer varies from person to person. I cannot say if there would ever be peace but by educating the new or young generation to learn how to be less competitive and aggressive, we would be able to make a difference. We should also try speaking though writing and speaking out by forms that are most affective. All this require work. We cannot say if peace is ever going to happen if we stand around and asking that question. By actually doing something... something that can change the course of history for all of humankind through peaceful means and perhaps sacrifice (willingly, if that's what it takes) can there be a possibility of peace. By peaceful means, I am talking about facing the problems directly. Of course, it would mean risking your own life but could it make a difference?
It is difficult to explain. Forgive me if it doesn't make any sense.

Man has been trying for peace for over 6000 years, when Cain killed Able, to now. Man is unable to rule him self, because he can not direct his own step, he needs Gods help, his Crater the one who knows him best. Mans best will never be good enough, man has his own interests to take care of.
Look at the world right now, is it a safe place to live? What is like 50 or 100 years ago? Satan knows he has a short time left and that is why the world is like it is. But you should be glad that the world is going the way it is, because the world ruled by Satin will end and we will see the world that God intended for us to live in.
From the time the Satan lured Adam & Eve to take of the fruit, there has been no peace for man. The Bible tells us that the end of this wicked system is at hand, all wicked mankind will be wiped off the surface of the earth once and for all times. Christ will rule over the earth for a thousund years, people will not get sick or die, man will grow young ont old. The Bible says there will be peace amoung all mankind. We will not want as are hevenly father will provide what we need.

Peace as defined by Oxford Advance Learner Dictionary is defined as
1) Freedom from war or Violence,
2) a state of calm or quiet,
3) a state of harmony and frendship.
Going by all these definition, my own response to the question is YES, but as long as we can all live in peace with one another.

i do not think that there ever will be peace. we say that peace exists put that is not realistic because at some point and time or another more crises will arise and more wars will start therefore there never will be peace as long as man is alive: we start the war, we end the war, we have another crises, we need to take care of that crises and we end up in war once again. it honestly is like a never ending cycle of chaos for everyone around the world.

Not while there are people, although I'm sure the vast majority of people want it. But by opposing avoidable war, and the politicians likely to promote it - and by working to develop alternative ways of resolving confict such as an empowered UN (without Security Council vetos)and international law, we may increasingly marginilise the psychopathic minorities within all societies that lead us to war. As in public health, all we can do is work for harm-minimisation - but without that we're lost. Climate change, which rationally should re-direct and co-ordinate human energy, is like to exacerbate wars
horrifically in coming decades. It's going to get very rough, even without idiots like Bush and the fundamentalists of all kinds. So those who want peace, civil order, and some kind of global justice are going to have to stand up as a critical mass for survival itself - because that's all it takes to swing societies, not a uniform majority. So think critically, join the like-minded, do your bit, and good luck.

There are various kinds of peace. Peace is a state of mind. Only when mind is resting is there peace. It is either when you are asleep or when you are dead.
If you mean 'peace' as a state of 'no war' then I peace is a myth.

I always think that that will be peace. Because humanbeing is peaceful inside of hisself. The necessary thing is to find out the right way to reach to the minds.

Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul.
Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
