It is common among political analysts, journalists and, in general, among the literati, to “urge dialogue”. We must “talk” with Hamas, Iran, the FARC…you name it.
This is based, of course, on the concept that any and all conflict can be settled by discussion and negotiation.
The Renaissance Man has a question. Even if conflict can always be resolved through discussion, how can it possibly stop conquest?
Surely the literati does not believe that the motivation to conquer is extinct.
