I agree that there are too many pacifists out there.

Pacifism's not the problem... I'm all for peace and tranquility..

But the concept of "PEACE AT ANY COST" is....

Even when it means that the most basic elements of international law, namely the deterrence and resistance to aggression, will never be opposed, nor any resultant punishment, enforced...

It will encourage more aggression.. It will suggest that the western world has grown so decadent and complacent that it is fully incapable of resisting any threat against it.
