Why is the war in 1984 never ending?

In George Orwell's "1984," the war is never-ending because it serves as a means of maintaining the power of the ruling party. The war is used to justify the government's control over the lives of citizens and the suppression of individual freedom. The government needs the war to continue to distract people from the problems at home and to maintain a state of fear and uncertainty among the population.
