Probably the only good thing that came out of it is that now we get to play this game.

What "inventions"?    Besides "harnessing Atomic Energy", give me "5 more".  Then we can discuss.

Given the circumstances, I'd say it was unavoidable/necessary.  However I don't think any war is good.

As a few have already said, war isn't good, but it sure as hell is a nice catalyst for positive things.  Sure, I would have loved it if some sniper knocked off Hitler at one of his pre-war rallies, but good things came about from the entire war, it's just that the circumstances in which they came of age wasn't the greatest.

War is never a good thing, I view that as an altruism...

But sometimes good things do come out of war... Like it or not...

Such as:
End of worldwide colonial empire...
End of an 1800yo european civil war...
Technology that expands mankinds knowledge and capabilities..
etc, etc...

All human beings have a dark urge to posess
that which someone else has... Since the caveman days...

Most of us, can control that urge... Or it is culturally suppressed as a whole...

But ANY of us, in a certain situation, can revert to our savage selves..

Just a fact...

Oh dude, that makes my day! :rofl

I think the phrase you're looking for is "universal truth," but you've already said as much when you say that war is never a good thing.

P.S. WW1 did far more to change the map and European civilization than WW2.
