If a country truly wants to have Peace with another or other countries it must stand for
Justice in world affairs.


Hmmm.

I'm thinking of the coutries in the world today that I would rank as the most peaceful.

I would include in that list, New Zealand, Holland, Norway, Sweden, and I can't add many, if any, more.

All of those countries are ones where I think Justice prevails internally. But I don't see any of them as standing in any meaningful way for Justice in world affairs.

Standing for Justice in world affairs, it would seem, tends to get one into conflict with at least some elements in most countries who disagree with your concept of Justice, or else who are getting wealthy from Injustice and so will actively oppose the attempted imposition of Justice.

Which will create conflict, which will mean the absence of peace for those countries.

What am I missing?
