Daily Mail/Reuters: Despite ISIS beheadings, Paris and San Bernardino attacks and Syrian war, the world is actually becoming LESS violent

* Compared to most of the postwar period, 2015 has been relatively peaceful
* Compared with previous centuries it has been very peaceful indeed
* 'For 500 years, Western European countries started two new wars a year; since WWII the number has been zero,' points out a Harvard psychologist
* Attacks of the kind that killed civilians in Paris, Ankara, California, Beirut and Garissa in Kenya this year are big news because they are rare, he adds
* Almost every other kind of violence, including murders, capital punishment, domestic violence, torture and hunting, has also fallen

This year may be remembered for barrel bombs, beheadings and the Bataclan massacre, but according to a Harvard psychologist, a remarkable long term downward trend in violence is continuing.

Wars are far less common and deadly than in the recent past, terrorism is rare, and the European refugee crisis is nothing new, said Steven Pinker, a bestselling science author.

'The news is a systematically misleading way to understand the world,' he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in an interview.

WNU Editor: I am not that optimistic .... war and conflict is in our nature, and this lull in wars and conflict is just that .... a lull.

KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

Revenge is a Poison meant for others, which we end up swallowing ourselves. Vengence is a Dark Light that blinds all who seek it. Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
