Answer:
the main purpose of war is destruction....
Explanation:
<em>War serves to provide a definitive answer to a dispute. War may kill many people in a short time but a bad peace will kill more and worse destroy more lives. It is just a slower evil. Nations or elements in nations are experiments. Conflicting idealologies fight for supremacy and when that fight reaches a stalemate war is the only way to break it without decades of slow simmering conflict that often creates the most violent outbursts and is most typically associated with genocide. Hatreds boil for too long and what happens when they boil over is often the worst evils attributed to war. Ironically they are really the evils of a bad peace. A peace kept too long when a short violent episode could have resolved the matter and real peace developed.</em>
<u>Broad Context:</u> The "Big Picture" is that the US is trying to annex the Republic of Texas as part of their states, and that Texas already <em>shared many common traits </em>(why? part) with the US, and should join as a state of their choosing, (which means slave or free) (How? part).
<u>Other Context:<em> </em></u><em> </em>The adding of Texas into the US (eventually as a slave state) offsetted the balance between the slaves and free states, and so California (gained after the Mexican-American War) was turned into a free state. Texas was the cause of the Texas Revolution & later on the (already named) Mexican-American War. The adding of Texas, and later the Gadsen Purchase, help create today's US southern border that is shared with Mexico.
