While I'm all against war I'm not sure how the banks are supposed to set it off. If anything the banks would be screwed. Wars mostly seem to be caused by alpha male leaders sacrificing the people for their greatness and glory. Which is why wars between democracies tend to be pretty half hearted or not happen as the people tend not to be keen on that.

I don't think that democracy has been popular for a sufficient amount of time to judge the viciousness of war between democratic states.
