The mistakes the whites made after giving up in SA and Zimbabwe was thinking the war would be over! I told the SA'er to partition their country to guarantee peace, but they would not listen. Give up part or give it all up was a scenario they did not believe in. The Ostrich method was their preferred model simulation technique. Also called the Pollyanna outcome. I dont't think Von Neuman signed off on that methodology or included it as a winning end in his game theory. Ostrich or pollyanna outcomes fail to properly assess the next outcome or the probable actions of the goal seekers who have been terrorizing in the first place. That is why you don't go to the table with anyone who did the WTC. Where is the guarantee that they won't do it again? It worked once, and a signature does not remove its viability. It also ignores the true aim of the action. Power. As Jim Morrison said at UCLA film school, "the world is about a will to power." (Stone and Morrison were contemporaries at UCLA. Morrison went on to the Rock band The Doors as poet laureate of the cleansed perception set. Stone is in graphics communication as a group operations theorist) EC<:-}
