    I keep thinking about his “there’s no point in invading lands anymore now, we are now a mostly peaceful world” thing as I read about Ukraine and Palestine

      Pretty sure i remember Harari mentioning his country Israel “not getting the memo” or something to that effect with the war thing. Double checked the book real quick and he does mention that conflict could arise in some of these countries despite us breaking the law of the jungle (conflict being natural and inevitable).
