Morality in Foreign Policy?

Wars have have two types of warriors, the men in the field up to their eyeballs in blood and guts and the knurds with words. I think the diplomatic knurds should be required to spend a few days at the front lines before being able to state a position. This way they would find solutions that would work once and for all.

 

Very true! I'm always on about the difference between idealists and realists. Idealists want to change what 'is', realists just want to deal with it (cosmetic treatment versus facing the truth and dealing with the key issues).

The irony here, of coure, is that the guys in the trenches, the guys in the fields up to their eyeballs in blood and guts, are rarely the guys who've actually started the damn war to begin with. To find out who those bastards are, you're gonna have to speak to the 'knurds with words'...
