Patriotism is a double edged sword, that can and have been manipulated by skilled politicians unnumerable times, and my point was more along the line of loyalty to a country, economic loyalty if you will.
No, eradicating the middle class will not end wars because the middle class doesn't start the wars.
Now, do the rich class start the wars?

Are those who serve in the attacking force also doing that out of patriotism?

It depends of the attacking forces, I guess, and of the motive for war.
