This is a timely debunking of realism. Indeed, as you suggest, if knowledge is policy practice, then how can a more peaceful world materialize if war is all we contemplate as knowledge-practice.

This is a powerful condemnation of realism and in general internarional relations theory.

Impressive lecture on realism and your point of view of what is wrong with our current extinct political system. Much to be learned by our supposed public servants to bring about peace and prosperity to our world.

Thanks for helping me to know more about politics, Navid🙂 i didn't know that politics is an art instead of a science

[@jimmillington]

Thanks once again for bringing this information to our attention

It is as you said "mind-boggling" for us as intelligent human beings who are created in the image of God in this day and age of modernity, wasting money and energy to defend ourselves against our supposed enemies. Let's hope we will not end up with a catastrophe to come up with a solution to this never-ending armaments by nations to fight each other instead of working together to bring peace and prosperity to all humanity.

Violence is always unnecessary. It only destroys, doesn't build. None of us like being destroyed. It's so basic, yet people let their emotions get in the way and get angry then resort to violence. Fighting is what apes do. Are we not better than apes?

It's so interesting that a state can have a personality disorder. And its terrifying that the abstract and defective state has absolute control over the individuals who live within its borders. Surely there is a better way than this justified abandonment of our fellow humans to the psychopathic state.
