Lenten Photo Challenge: Day 42 - Peace




Peace

The absence of war.

But in order to have peace, you must be either willing to bow to a superior force, or be a superior force.

Or you must compromise and a let one another live in peace.

But how often does that happen?

I was told one time in a political science class that if humans were angels we would not need laws or armies. That is why we have laws and armies.

I am a believer that a in order to stop a war, someone has to render a combatant no longer able to, or willing to wage war.

History proves this so. Unless you put your enemies down, you will not have peace.

Currently, my country is at war.

I understand that in this world we cannot and must not be conquerors, but we must not allow others to bring war to us or continue to make war on us.

We have superior firepower.

Why are we still at war?

Peace through superior firepower.

(That is what the above photo is roughly translated to.)
