This sort of thing, tends to go nowhere because we're in the realm of opinion, right and wrong, etc. All interesting subjects.
But IM, at least to me, is more of an experience... I mean I've seen how my thoughts affect my reality in a positive and negative way. I have experienced it. Although who or what may have "attracted" WW2 is interesting question in itself, what relevance does it have to YOUR life.
I used to debate Christians and they would always say "god's way is not our own or to understand", and maybe I'm actually doing that here... but I'm not trying to convince or anything. It's more "I have experienced this, and WW2 existed at the same time".
I don't have the answers but it seems to me these very questions block the flow of being in the moment. But of course as humans we are critical thinkers and love a puzzle.
I get much from taoism, which gets into dualism, light and dark, positive and negative, each being necessary for the other. You would not know good without bad. I don't think there's a god out there creating good and bad. Things happen and we decide what they mean to us.
Now I'm just rambling, lol.
