'What's the point of anything, war might break out tomorrow.' is basically what you are saying.

It's a silly argument to make especially considering that a war wouldn't change the lives of the average citizen anymore and hasn't done so for decades.

Life would carry on because the way wars are fought now are completely different to how they were fought in WW2.
