Peace is a fragile thing. War is the natural state of Man. Conflict is what we do best. Just look at our weapons. Much more advanced than our buildings, right?! If peace is to be achieved, compromise must be sought. It requires burying the hatchet, and preferably not in your opponents’ headpiece. But that can only work if rational people sit down and choose to work things out calmly. Violence only begets violence. If the endgame is peace, violence must be abjured.
