26. TJ - You did not read my post.
I'll try to simplify for you.

You asked, "What is it in Western Culture that makes nations so prone to racism and war?"

I answered, "Western culture is a product of humans. Just as Arab culture, and Persian culture, and Asian culture, etc."

i.e. Racism and war have been part and parcel of every human civilization. Since you obviously don't understand that - I added the comment, "If you think that war and racism is something that Western civilization invented then you just have not studied history."

Hope that helps but it's really not that complicated.
