So how are we doing, two years on? Well, shockingly, the “make peace through war” plan seems to be stumbling a bit; for some reason, all war seems to make is more war. Oh, I know, I know, it’s only been a few months, we gotta give this war a little time to mature and magically invert its nature to become peace. But still, I can’t help wondering . . . is it possible that war isn’t the answer?
