Almost everybody claims to want peace. Nations have conquered other nations in the name of peace, and violent riots have often been the result of peace protests. There are many different ideas of just what peace is, and how peace is to be achieved, from the idea that peace can only be achieved through the threat of violence, to the idea that peace can only come from within oneself, and cannot be 'made'.
I would like to know how you define 'peace', and whether you think peacemaking is possible.
"Peace is not just the opposite of war, not just the lapse of time between two wars - peace is more. Peace is when we act right and when there is justice among all human beings and all nations." - Indian Saying
