What does Suppose they gave a war and nobody came? mean?
A:
This slogan was indeed popular in the Vietnam War era. It came to represent anti-war sentiments or pacifism. Meaning there can't be a war, if people do not participate in it.
It's hard to track the origin of this quote, but people usually trace it to Bertolt Brecht who said something like:
"What if they give a war and nobody came?
Then, war would come to you!"
This actually has the opposite meaning of the Vietnam War era slogan. This one means that you have to show up to war because it will come to you anyways.

Q:
How do you say this in English (US)? 戦争が起これば、多くの国が被害を受けることになる。If a war occurs, Many countries would have unvenefits.
A:
Literally, a word by word translation of the Japanese is "If war occurs, it is decided that many countries will receive damage." I could probably express "ことになる" as "will end up" in English because it has that meaning that someone else decided/agreed on it. "被害を受ける" I would say as "get damaged". This expression is funny to use for countries, so I used "devastated" instead. I could also say, "If a war occurs, many countries will end up being damaged," but it's not the way I would express it naturally.
Other questions about "War"

A:
Looks great! The only thing I would change, is remove “previous”:)
Q:
Why "The war is started" is wrong, and "The war started" is correct?
A:
"The war is started" is not incorrect, but it is an example of archaic grammar in English. At one point, perfective tenses were formed using the verb to be ("I am come", etc.), but nowadays this is not the case. Now we form perfective tenses with the verb "to have", although some constructions like "I'm done" or "I'm finished" still exist (grammarians would probably analyze the words "done" and "finished" as adjectives, not participles). So there are two "canonical" variants:
The war started.
and
The war has started.
I hope that clears up any questions you had.

Q:
Why not? After the war, some had criticized that the pre-war government's "guidance" of children's books in the run-up to the war had worked as the first step toward the suppression of free speech and Japan's entry into the war. Many felt that the censorship of children's comics could be a repeat of the pre-war suppression of free speech, and in response, the movement calling for a system of censorship of children's comics somehow died out. Does this sound natural?
A:
× Many felt that the censorship of children's comics could be a repeat of the pre-war suppression of free speech, and in response, the movement calling for a system of censorship of children's comics somehow died out.
✓ Many felt that the censorship of children's comics could be a repeat of the pre-war suppression of free speech. In response, the movement calling for a system of censorship for children's comics somehow died out.
