Just as long as you realize that it is not a peacefull solution , they are fighting to preserve their way of life , your solution will have us shooting each other ,just as often as any other.
Yes, I am sure that relatively peaceful trade will no doubt result in lots and lots of deaths (no, not really). It is already an important reason that we are fighting.
I'm sure that trying to bomb them would be a much better solution (actually, no, I don't believe that). Bombing people always makes them want to be like us (no, can't think of a single case where that happened).
WE shouldn't have as a goal that they become redundant xeroxes of ourselves , this began to happen in Germany and Japan , but we are not really trying to erase the differences so Germany and Japan have become friends without entirely loosing their national identity.
So now we're in perfect agreement (except for where we disagree).[/color]
If you have the reciprocal of a perfect understanding , an epiphany becomes so simple......
