But, the more general point remains: If the peaceful countries of the world (whoever they may be) want to prevent war, then they must have the military strength and the will to use that military strength to stop a country from starting a war.Glad to see you make that argument. So when Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Iraq join together to defeat Israeli aggression and terrorism, we can count on you to lead the cheering.
Your position uses the same failed logic as those open-carry gun nuts. If everybody has a gun, the thinking goes, then there won't be any crime! The problem is, if everyone has a gun, the likelihood of its use goes up. We hear this every time some kid shoots up a school or employess shoots up his workpalce. But there is not a single example of a mass shooting in which the guy doing the killing is stopped by an armed citizen, even in the most heavily armed nation on earth. The shooter keeps going until he runs out of bullets, kills himself, or is killed by police.
the reason u fail is because u only rely on the Mainstream news for ur information. Somebody stopping a shooting doesnt make for as good a stroy as an actual shooting so what gets reported more often? Look up the stats on even the conservative estimates of how much an armed citizen stopss shit.
