Subject: RE: BS: Where does the violence come from?
Just to get back on thread, one of the roots of violence is the inability o stand up to the threat of violence and allowing bullying to establish itself. If the Iraqi had stood up years ago to the Baathist and said they wouldn't stand still for torture and power grabs, the whole issue of Hussein's regimen could have been resolved at much lower cost. If it had been resolved in 1991 it would have been considerasbly cheaper than it is today.
