LETS LIGHT EM ALL UP!

If only the fight for peace and justice were that simple. As I see it, the peace movement has three factions:

1. Those who think conventional weapons and fuel/air explosives will bring peace.

2. Those who favor tactical nuclear weapons.

3. Those who say nothing less than strategic nukes will solve the problem.

Personally I'm torn. While there is a place for option #1, it is definitely not enough alone. So the question is: What is the proper balance of all three options?

We have to first identify the problem before we start executing a solution. The war against terrorists or "war for Peace and justice" is not very clearly defined. If you do not have clearly defined objectives, we cannot tell when we have won or when the task is complete, not only that we wil not be in a position to make decision about the solution to the problem.

The "light em up" comment was made as my solution to what I think the problem is. Your definition of problem and my definition maynot be the same.
