The best win of a war

The best win of a war is one without shooting a single arrow. Or, the pen is mightier than the sword.

There are many in the long Chinese history. The prime minister opened all the gates and played the Chinese violin facing the invaders. The invaders moved away as they thought they must have some trick. However, most likely you are not interested or familiarized with that story. It is like telling the polar bears how beautiful the winter snow is (hint: they're all hibernating during that time).

Kennedy solving the Cuban missile crisis is one example I can think of. I agree that it is the ideal but reality is always cruel.

The US has more  military expenditure than that of the next four countries combined. Do we REALLY need a carrier powered by two nuclear generators while China has one good for a floating restaurant? I enjoy the restaurant with fresh seafood more than a killing machine.

Are we saints or stupid when they do not want to fight and die for their freedom and we let our children to die for them?
