The realization of unlimited non polluting energy would after a while bring and end to wars

Well, that's just silly. Based on the vulgar Marxist idea that all people fight about is money or resources. If that were the case, why are Muslims, many of whom are incredibly wealthy, attacking us?

Was the Cold War a conflict over energy?

Was Stalin motivated by a desire to better provide for his people or to implement the world revolution?

Would Hitler have dropped his plans for conquest if only he'd had cold fusion?

I agree that if cheap, non-polluting energy were widely available, it would eliminate most logical reasons for human conflict. But most human conflict is not based on logical reasons.

***I agree with that. In fact, there’s a bible verse that might prophesy what will happen:

1 Thessalonians 5:3

New International Version (©2011)

While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
