“Those advocates who work for world peace by urging a system of world government are called impractical dreamers.

Those impractical dreamers are entitled to ask their critics what is so practical about war.” -- Walter Cronkite

The Failure of War

by Wendell Berry

We still, by policy, give no consideration to nonviolent means of national defense. We do indeed make much of diplomacy and diplomatic relations, but by diplomacy we mean invariably ultimatums for peace backed by the threat of war... What the justifiers of these acts ignore is the fact—well-established by the history of feuds, let alone the history of war—that violence breeds violence.

Shifting priorities, rethinking 'homeland' security, imagining peace, a new vision, connections, protecting and preserving 'the Commons', projecting peace time as a national security strategy... New definitions of national and global security, recognizing indivisible security interests... It is critical to move beyond the failed national security policies of the past.

"We must learn to acknowledge that the creation is full of mystery; we will never entirely understand it. We must abandon arrogance and stand in awe. We must recover the sense of the majesty of creation, and the ability to be worshipful in its presence. For I do not doubt that it is only on the condition of humility and reverence before the world that our species will be able to remain in it." - Wendell Berry
