#1 Let's see. 6,000+ years of recorded history, 50 recorded years of peace. Yep, I'd say perpetual war is in our past. And based on our past, I'd say it's in the future too!

Was this tard paid money to write that article? There was NOTHING inciteful in there. Any (non-revisionist) historian knows that the military starts fighting the next war with the tools and techniques they used in the last war.

Furthermore, to quote Tolkien "Those who do not have swords can still die upon them". It only takes one side to start a war. Everything I know about Islam screams that we will be at war until we wipe it out or we all convert.

#2 IIRC the Guinness Book of Record used to have an entry to the effect that since recorded history [approximately 2000 BC on] there's only been about 200 years of peace throughout the world. That implies that war is constant, peace is exceptional.

#3 When Europeans entered Africa and the Americas, they found permanent tribal wars of attrition. We have to include those conflicts. I don't think the world has ever had universal peace. Notwithstanding their less than belligerent periods, Muslims are under koranic ordenance to work to a world where "allah alone" is worshipped. Peace is impossible in that context.
