Your point of view is not particulary controversial or shocking, or unique to you. But I find little evidence for it and much to the contrary. For example, take a look at WW2 in USA:

or simply look at birth rates in Israel, a very militarized country.

True purpose of war lies elsewhere. As Orwell said:

And obviously, lots of subjects will internalize values of ruling group and believe that war is good for economy or birth rates ;)
