Nathan and his friends are going to go to ISIS/IS/whoever and explain to them the ways of peace and friendship.
They have nothing to lose but their heads. Posted by Is Mise, Monday, 22 September 2014 7:32:41 AM

I hate war. Worse than war would have been a Nazi victory in WW2.

Not the least consequence of which would have been the forced use of Japanese typewriters.

"Why is war always seen as the solution? What will you be doing for the International Day of Peace?"
Two questions, I don't believe the claim in the first is justifable based on the evidence. I'm not sure just how broad a coverage was intended however given that for almost any plausable group of nations in the modern era its clear that war is not always seen as the solution. The vast majority of disagreements between nations are not dealt with by war. Thats not to say that some wars are not entered into unwisely however the evidence is pretty clear that in the vast majority of cases war is not seen as the solution. There are issues around the economics of defence/offence and diversion from domestic issues where war or the escalation of tension can be entered into for reasons with little to do with the claimed causes however taking an overly simplistic approach to that does little to address the times then war is the lesser of evils. On the second question, pretty much what I do on most "international day of <insert cause here>". R0bert Posted by R0bert, Monday, 22 September 2014 9:09:09 AM

Foxy is going to tell us how to take the peace option. The people of Mosul would certainly want to know how this operates.

How would you go about preventing that evil that is being perfected in the middle east from spreading ?
