“Councils of war breed timidity and defeatism.”– Jack Kemp Related Quotes “Rather than turning away from the staggering scale and depth of misery caused by war, we must strive to develop our capacity to empathize and feel the sufferings of others.”– Daisaku Ikeda “When I grew up, in Taiwan, the Korean War was seen as a good war, where America protected Asia. It was sort of an extension of World War II. And it was, of course, the peak of the Cold War. People in Taiwan were generally proAmerican. The Korean War made Japan. And then the Vietnam War made Taiwan. There is some truth to that.”– Ang Lee “You can’t make war in the Middle East without Egypt and you can’t make peace without Syria.”– Henry A. Kissinger
