Wrong.

You are looking at war from a griefing pov, and not someone who truly loves to pvp. If war was consensual, wouldn't you get a lot more epic battles because both sides wanted to fight?

Probably, but not all of us are after "epic battles", even when we enjoy combat. PvP combat in EVE is so much more than just bashing each other in an arena type environment and watching pretty explosions. The really fun part is on a much higher strategic level.

To say that high sec wars are not about a goal or resource is wrong. Some of them might not be, but there are a lot of reasons for high-sec wars beyond simple "yay easy prey". (Not that I think "yay easy prey" is a problem in itself. Just saying it is not at all the only reason why people fight in high-sec.)
