I love "Peace" - but peaceful people are only effective if the powers that be respect their demands, assuming the peaceful people make demands.
So if they don't make demands, or the powerful don't respect the peaceful, then "peace" is no longer the solution, it's the failure of will.
Unfortunately, the powerful who disrespect the peaceful can only be removed by force. It's basic physics. There are simply some people and some movements that cannot and will not be swayed by discourse.
As I like to say, for those who are myopic, you most [MUST] open for them a new eye.
