Some of my favourite quotes right here:

'Peaceful coexistence cannot be limited to the powerful countries if we want to ensure world peace. Peaceful coexistence must be exercised among all states, regardless of size, regardless of the previous historical relations that linked them, and regardless of the problems that may arise among some of them at a given moment.'

'Those who kill their own children and discriminate daily against them because of the color of their skin; those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, protecting them, and furthermore punishing the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men — how can those who do this consider themselves guardians of freedom? The government of the United States is not the champion of freedom, but rather the perpetrator of exploitation and oppression against the peoples of the world and against a large part of its own population.'

'How can it be "mutually beneficial" to sell at world market prices the raw materials that cost the underdeveloped countries immeasurable sweat and suffering, and to buy at world market prices the machinery produced in today's big automated factories?'

World peace.  The most vacuous goal known to man.

:laugh: I agree, but what happens after those words is certainly important.

Not really.  At least part requires faith in something that doesn't exist: forgiveness on a cultural scale.  "The past isn't dead. It isn't even past."

Is pacifism unimportant? :(

Pacifism is an ideal, but one that can never be realized.  Sometimes violence is justified, and whether or not it is, it will continue.  I would rather like to see a more energized, organized anti-war movement in the US.
