Peace is achievable through diplomacy from "summary" of Common Sense by Thomas Paine
Peace, like war, is a product of human actions and decisions. It is not some mystical force that descends upon us from above. It is within our power to create peace or to create conflict. And the most effective way to achieve peace is through the use of diplomacy. Diplomacy is the art of negotiation and compromise. It is the means by which conflicting parties can come together, discuss their differences, and find common ground. Through diplomacy, disputes can be resolved without resorting to violence. Diplomacy is not a sign of weakness, as some may believe. On the contrary, it requires great skill and intelligence to navigate the complexities of international relations and to find solutions that satisfy all parties involved. In the realm of international politics, diplomacy is essential for maintaining peace. It allows nations to communicate with one another, to express their grievances, and to work towards mutually beneficial agreements. When diplomacy fails, conflict often follows. Wars are fought when nations refuse to engage in dialogue and instead choose to resort to force. In the past, many conflicts have been resolved through diplomacy. Treaties have been signed, borders have been redrawn, and disputes have been settled. While diplomacy is not always successful, it is often the best option available. War should always be a last resort, to be used only when all other avenues have been exhausted. By embracing diplomacy, nations can avoid the devastation and suffering that come with armed conflict. They can build relationships based on trust and mutual respect. They can create a world in which peace is not just a dream, but a reality. Diplomacy is the key to achieving this vision.
