A suicide truck bomb ripped through a busy shopping district in Baghdad over the weekend, killing more than 100 in what was the deadliest single attack in the war-weary country in years. The brazen Saturday night attack in the heart of the packed Karrada neighborhood killed at least 125 people, including 25 children and 20 women.

It seems like we are gradually descending into WW3. The end game is total destruction. I don't see any other way out for the world.

Normal human beings don't settle their disputes with guns and bayonets, but for some reason Governments and Islamic Extremists think this is acceptable behavior in the 21st century.
Killing people isn't acceptable except when threatened and in fear for ones life.
In our modern age, solving a problem by asking a dude to step outside is generally considered an immature, low class thing to do. But for many centuries, challenging another man to a duel was not only considered a pinnacle of honor, but was a practice reserved for the upper-classes, those deemed by society to be true gentlemen.

It was the modern age that created the sucker punch for an advantage, then again other men learned how to take a punch and fight back. I wish dueling was still a thing, at that rate other people would be dis encouraged to sucker punch someone and realize they are taking their life in their own hands by effing around.
Yet dueling was once not only acceptable but it was the only way to solve an issue.....we have have been killing each other for a simple disagreement for a long long time...
This is one of many sites that come up when googling dueling....
