Four common forms of politics that perpetuate conflict instead of ending it:

Identity politics: The sense of victimhood nourishes suffering and 
keeps it going generation to generation.

Righteous Indignation.  The angry sense that we are justified and the 
others wrong.

Justice: The insistence on finding justice before there can be peace.

Revenge: The concept of justice based on retribution perpetuates conflict.
