Isn't it quite clear that other than a little racism, other countries get along just fine?

I remember having chinese penpals in middle school and some of my classmates went to china for the summer, couldn't we not get any more hospitality from each other? Who is really making the decision to drop the bombs? Is it the citizens or the government? Can some one clear this up for me, I just don't understand, why would any one support huge wars without a good reason?

In my eyes, I see war as organized crime being carried out by people that are power hungry.
After 10,000 years of civilization, humanity still can't figure out (collectively) that war is a bad idea. That's like being hit in the face 10 billion times and still not knowing why it hurts. People are too irrational, at their core, to ever "get it". We really are more animal than angel.
