I believe that wars only end when one side acknowledges that it has been beaten.

Germany never really accepted defeat after WW1 Hence WW2 is often thought of as the same war, just with a 20 year ceasefire.

The Palestine/Israeli conflict is another example. The Arabs have never accepted that they lost in 1948, 1967 etc and so are still fighting.
