Humans will try to make peace with a bear.
We will not make peace with an avocado.
We’ll only sign a truce with that which can destroy us.
Therefore, if one wants peace, prepare for war. Be a deadly threat. Let those who want to harm us know that doing so will cost them everything.

As an example, Putin is a sociopath. No one can appeal to his better instincts because he has none. He isn’t magnanimous. He won’t see the Ukrainians’ humanity. The only way to get someone like Putin to stop fighting is to show him that he will lose everything and die if he continues to fight.

Once the killing starts, one must have a plan for fully defeating the enemy. One must be prepared for total warfare.
Peace can only be negotiated from a position of STRENGTH.
But, in all honesty, peace isn’t negotiated in the traditional sense - one side FORCES the other to stop fighting.

I mean this quite seriously. War isn’t a real estate transaction or litigation.
If two groups of people are already shooting each other, that means diplomacy and negotiations failed a long time ago. At that point, the only way out is through.
