The Problem with Peace

The only reason Miss America candidates can’t have their dream of “world peace” is because there’s this little thing called “evil”. The idea of peace is not the problem, but the methods in which to achieve it are what lead to a great schism in today’s society. Breaking down this particular problem Socratic style doesn’t give an accurate result. The methods one individual utilizes to settle matters with another individual don’t pertain to matters on the grand scale. Peace is truly desired by all, but it is only achieved when good forces clash and defeat their enemies.

And isn’t all of it relative (It shouldn't be, but it is)? Cindy Sheehan has disgraced her son who extended in order to be deployed to Iraq by thinking on selfish terms. I don’t recall Sheehan being such a prominent anti-war figure before her son died, so I can only conclude that she’s nothing but a crackpot mother who was unable to see beyond her own happiness (See crackpot mother in Jaws who slaps Chief Brody).

Bumper stickers that read inane slogans such as “War is Terrorism” or “Another Mother for Peace” are nothing but typical liberal nonsense. What does any of that mean? Are there mothers for violence and destruction (Besides Sheehan who wishes she could have killed our president when he was an infant)? Liberals try to get away with dodging major issues by vomiting catchy slogans that seem to have some credence at face value, but when they are applied to real matters they are complete and utter tripe.

If there’s anyone who’s truly “anti-war” it’s the people who’ve actually fought in one. It would be nice if we lived in a world where a warrior’s death was so rare that they all received the same attention that Akhilleus gave Patroklos, but that will never happen as long as liberals undermine our noble efforts in the name of politics.
