How to get Maven to run war:exploded but not war:war?

According builtin lifecycle bindings for war packaging in package phase war:war mojo is called.

The only way I can think of to do what you want is to set use pom packaging (or create a custom packaging) and bind the required goals from the war packaging to the relevant phases of the lifecycle. If you go for pom packaging you can use define the war:war execution in a profile to allow you to package it, but you'll need to use the build-helper-maven-plugin attach-artifact goal to attach the war to the pom.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
