"would accomplish ZIPPO in this case"

If you mean the sponsors of the September 11 events, of
course not.

On the other hand, the U.S. government says it is working
COOPERATIVELY with many nation-states to stop the sponsorship of terrorism. That is entirely in keeping with the notions presented in the full article.

The article suggests:

-- understand the gravity of the situation
-- take the beginning steps to eliminate war
-- use cooperation and tolerance and major tools
-- keep working at it--forever
-- understand that human conflict will always exist, but there are some means for reducing that, honorably, without war.

I don't expect everybody to say, "right, of course",
but please keep an open mind on it. Don't just accept the
illogical notion that:

"THE WAY YOU END WAR IS BY GREATER FORCE APPLIED AGAINST YOUR ENEMY IN WAR"

Human history to this point should suggest that there is
something flawed in that logic.

Namaste!
