   Except female leadership has always led to new wars of aggression, without   
   fai, in known history.  The most recent I can think of is Margaret Thatcher.   
      
   I know some say she wasn't really her own leader. but a shill for the   
   rightwing lords of industry.  But either way, she joined the ranks of   
   Cleopatra & Rome,  Indira Gandhi and Pakistan, Golda Meir and the Yom Kippur   
   war, or Margaret  Thatcher and the Falklands.  Also, what's-her-name in Russia   
   of eld.   
      
   I think war isn't only a testosterone-led thing, but a human weakness, or a    
   fact of nature, when population needs to be adjusted.   
      
   Human are humans, regardless of their roles: avocation or vocation; Genitalia    
   not too relevant.   
      
   We're inherently selfish & greedy -- this leads to war, nearly every time.   
      
   Maybe you & I need to divide up the world into two teams & just have global    
   peace forever, but someone'll knock us both off & bring us back to status quo    
   in  no time.   
      
   Peaceniks in positions of presumed power get assassinated. . .   
      
   The fact is that modern war, anyway, is very profitable for some very old &    
   very powerful families.  They don't just let that go away, especially given    
   they feel they have absolute(nearly Divine) right over the lives of human    
   cattle(as we are to them -- workhorses only, to ensure they maintain a   
   certain  standard of living far above what we're allowed to ever gain)   
      
   Apparently the current goal is to drop world population to around 500M, just    
   enough to provide for ourselves in near subsistence levels that we're to feel    
   grateful for, & to provide for their far higher lifestyle standards.. .
