If I massacre your family in the name of a particular religion. Peace has never been achieved through dialogue alone. War has been a part of mankind since we as humanity gain consciousness, so it is a little disegenious and frankly dangerous to be talking as somehow we must take the high road from the likes of ISIS/ISIL/IS.

There will be times when the use of force is a necessary tool to use to achieve a peaceful objective. I am for peace too, but am also a realist that the world we live in is a dangerous place and there are people who wish to inflict damage to our country.
