What does the Killer Ape Theory say about humankind?

In this video we discuss the Killer Ape Theory, a theory that states, "War and interpersonal aggression are the driving force behind human evolution."

I look at three specific implications of the theory,

1. Humans are an inherently aggressive species.
2. Humans are not entirely in control of their behavior.
3. Men are born with innate aggression.

To what degree could these implications be true? How do they support Killer Ape Theory? Are they even required to be true for the Killer Ape Theory to reign supreme?

Let's take a look.
