15824 - Reply from Régine , 45 y.o. (France) - 2012-07-21 I would say that knowledge and communication could be a solution for peace. Because many ennemies of Occidentals have a wrong opinion of us. Because of their traditions, overall concerning women who are considered as inferiors. The problems are the stereotyps. But knowledge and communication are very restricted by barbarians that must be absolutely tamed. Schools are only for boys and often they live only by their traditional beleifs and are completely conditionated against us. No way to make them uderstand the truth and so as they do attempts, the only way is war. And we should never forget the roman sentence : "who wants peace prepares war".

13577 - Reply from scholar (usa) - 2010-03-06 So, I guess you like quotations! For this one, I guess it basically means that if you lead/subdue by force it is only a matter of time before those that are subservient to you will try to revolt. However, if your leadership is based on respect and understanding, it is a lot more likely that your position will be maintained. The same is true for peace. A forced peace is artificial and will crumble at the first show of weakness. However, if two disagreeing sides truly take the time to get to know each other and love each other, then they will not want to fight. If you make friends with your enemy, he is no longer your enemy!
