Mr Jarju,
thanks for forwarding this article. I thoroughly enjoyed
reading it and came out with a reinforced believe that wars no matter their
scope and geography should concern us all as human beings and intervening at
a multilateral level to stop a vicious spiral is the right thing to do. I
don't find the argument that letting combatants fight to the extent of their
strengths persuasive because wars unlike other aspects of society is not
always lucid. what for example would constitude defeat? The world is replete
with cases in which militarily more powerful combatants find themselves
bogged down in intractible wars for years despite their strong desire to
vanquish the enemy.
