>>189293 There is a saying: Peace is the Dormant seed of War. Thats not just a sound bite. Its true in the most literal sense as it speaks to the paradoxal nature of peace. Explanation: The more peaceful a nation is, the more vulnerable they are to enemy attack, and are therefore inevitably going to be attacked, resulting in war. Any argument against this is contingent on the belief that the age of conquest as it were, is over and was just that - a mere age, when in fact it happens to be part of our nature, no matter how progressive and modern we think we are. For instance: Im Canadian. If the USA disappeared tomorrow, Id be looking down the barrel of a Russian assault rifle, Iran would annihilate Iraq, China would invade Taiwan, North Korea would invade the south, India and Pakistan would destroy each other, etc. The liberal ideal of global utopia is a lie and anyone who believes it is woefully naïve. War is a fact of life. The only responsible thing to do is accept it, and tend to military matters in a proactive and honorable manner. Protecting your loved ones supercedes the trivial desire to posture yourself by engaging is the latest political trend.
