32. once they let it get as far as they did, war probably inevitable
A pacifist analysis would begin by arguing that if Hitler hadn't gained so much power (through being backed by American industrialists at one point)or if the peace of World War I had been less vindictive (and had not fostered conditions that led to Hitler's rise to power) the conditions might not have come into being that led to war.
Might have not...
Just because war has always been the method in the past does not mean that ways should not be advanced to make war unnecessary now. Unless of course we stay trapped in our current human nature, in which case war will always be necessary.
That was then, this is now. Do we want to continue to repeat mistakes?
