the evidence is that a blockade would not have ended WWII.
it would have allowed the Soviet Union to switch it's forces to the
Eastern Front...
which probably would have resulted in a Soviet sphere. (snippet)
my japanese stepmother told me the americans dropped the bomb because
japan was negotiating a surrender to the commies, which would have
ended the war, and japan would have become a soviet satellite.

>what role do governments have in going to war when the solution might
>be to find a way to give people in these countries hope?
if most wars are due to government seeking advantage (which certainly
is the case in iraq) it is even more tragic that freedom loving
americans went along with bushco. we had no
dictatorship to resist.
wars may not be correlated with desperation, but this war is to defeat
terrorism, which can be described as tactics of desperation.
the wars of the last 30 years are vastly different than 250 years ago,
although people lived under oppessive regimes.
