I know, let's end that abominable feature of our culture. I call it... the war on war.

More seriously... "war" seems to be a byword for "unlimited and opaque budget" so it's attractive to all political stripes; it's also a byword for "we're actually taking this seriously" which is attractive to a large segment of the population.

Soon, a series of organizations fighting war will pop up creating the war-on-war industrial complex, necessitating the war on war on war.

It's war all the way down.
