Is there an "enemy" ?

The problem with that theory, Stang, is that someone can develop a fixed idea that I am their enemy, and I might be powerless to change their attitude towards me no matter how much I change my behaviour.

It would be truer to say, only we can decide who our enemies are.

There is no evil. We are all "the enemy" and only we can fix it.
Violence leads to Violence.

Generalizations lead to hyperbole.

You don't think that violence like the invasion of Iraq encourages violence ?

Yes, of course. But don't you think tolerating totalitarian dictators encourages totalitarian violence? The choice is not as binary as you pretend.
