As a history lover and interest in wars and reasons for wars and military history. Ive copied and pasted the aims.

[quote] "The forum seeks to provides members with an area of academic study in order to critically analyse & develop anaytical skills. Somewhere to discuss & debate International Relations, security, defence, Military history, politics, & war, & any other relevent subject. The forum will examine contemproary issues affecting the global actors, will seek to dicuss definitions & causes of war, as well as trends & themes in modern conflict upon the global stage. The main emphasis will be on a general theme of discourse.
The forum aims to be a free discussion board providing an atmosphere of a calm adult debate, a kind of internet Seminar of constructive analysis & critical discourse; although it is recognised that many areas under discussion will be contentious, this is only to be expected!
Thus the forum has been created to provide an area of open discussion & debate, for likeminded people who have a clear interest in war, politics, & IR. With that primary purpose in mind this forum was created. Here it is hoped likeminded individuals will come together to pursue their collective & or individual interest, whether academic or lay, or just out of interest all are welcome as are all opinions."
