Default Peace Through Superior Firepower

An interesting proposition.

In the case of WW2 we clearly entered the war too late, and then only after
a direct attack. Europe had already been bleeding far too long, and it's not
like Hitler had a secret agenda, he wrote a friggin book.

It's easy in hindsight to call "late action" on someone. It's a lot easier
to second guess pre-emptive behavior, because the percieved threat is stil
unmanifested and unrealized.

If you strike to early and neutralise a threat - who's to ever know what
would have happened?

Without our mighty firepower, the world would "peacefully" be in the
67th year of the 1000 year Reich.

There can be no doubt, Jim, that was a good line.

There can be no doubt that the last "moral" war does not justify any

"immoral"
wars that follow.
