What's sick about that idea?

If there is no negotiation either the conflict goes on with the weaker side suffering more, or the conflict ends on the terms of the stronger side. If there is a negotiation more often then not the stronger side will get things a bit closer to what it wants then to what the weaker side wants. Certainly the stronger side will have to give up something (unless it is so much stronger that it could impose the terms at gunpoint if the weaker side doesn't give it what it wants through negotiation) but normally the stronger side will not meet the weaker side half way.
