I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

I already know that it's possible to settle conflict
peacefully, and that the burning issues of one time
are the foolish historical quirks of another.

The problem lies in the assumption that *all* conflicts
can be settled peacefully. But there is no way to assure
that you will not be physically attacked by someone with
whom you are in conflict. In the case of Iraq, we have a
precedent, where that nation did in fact go and attack a
neighbor.
