Thankfully we can make accords: under an accord, everyone can agree to simultaneously disarm themselves. It's not a perfect and forever solution to conflicts, but it's quite close. If everyone is disarmed, and we are under constant watch to make sure everyone is, the risk of conflict is very reduced. If a country breaks the accord others should have enough time to chase and seek peaceful solutions. Political instabilities can dissolve.
War really should interest no one with good intentions. Anything war can do, conversations, cultural exchange, agreements and even sanctions can do better (if everyone agrees to abandon war). It's like in a scientific discussion... there's is effectively no, zero, case where punching your peer is better at progressing science than discussion and understanding.
Of course, we also need to abolish fascism meanwhile -- it doesn't mean absolute tolerance, just that other tools should always be used to prevent and correct fascism and other dystopias that seem to require weapons to save yourself from.
