    Many ideologues are incompetent at understanding a fundamental fact of life: diplomacy is powerless to prevent one’s country from being butchered by a DarkTetrad/DarkTriad country, exactly the same as diplomacy is powerless to prevent rape: physical-fight is REQUIRED when adversary deems one to be their “rightful” prey.

    Getting that wrong doesn’t save lives, it costs them.

    The root-guru of the Christians, benJoseph, even stated, that he didn’t come to bring peace, but war.

    & their “1st Resurrection” doesn’t even happen until after the good & the evil fight, & the good resist even-to-death yielding to the beast, so war’s intrinsic in their religion’s Purification/Tribulation/Armageddon…

    < sigh >

    Objectivity/accuracy-of-view seems to be something that ideology is immune-to…

    unfortunately…
