You were right when you said that the bullies respect only superior force. That is truth but , maybe "sensitivity training" can help...

It is so difficult to deal with bullies. Some might be angry about a problem in their lives and might change their ways if they were able to talk about it. Others seem to have nothing in their personalities except a will to dominate and destroy others. They are manipulative and collect gangs of hangers-on.The outstanding specimen of this sort in focus at the moment is Gadaffi. They are only stopped, after stupendous effort and an enormous cost, by a general consensus plus force.

The mini-versions at schools and workplaces or other groups attain power by confusing and exhausting everyone. They are able to make people believe in them, that their cruel behaviour has a rationale.
The wider community needs a common technical vocabulary to describe what these people are doing, the various processes they use to achieve their goals. Then it might be easier to pin them down with a label which attracts a specific firm, civilised and unamused reaction from everyone who deals with them.

Solutions are right in front of our eyes: All twenty six of them in the example last week in NRL (Manly and Melbourne); just need to balance the "odds" a little.
