Category:Diplomacy

It is true that some things really can be settled in peaceful forum, sitting down and talking your enemy. RL religion certainly holds this, and Christianity teaches that it is better to "Turn the Other Cheek" than seek revenge, and that it's better to let the guy swipe your cloak then to attack him.

This being said, nukes can't be handed over by saying "pretty please", especially if you're an evil little Asian man that rules a sorry little brainwashed country that everyone loves to hate.

This problem seems to crop up in Antarctica as much as it does in reality. Although many regimes are FAR more war-mongering.

Diplomacy is better worded as butt-kissing or boot-licking. If one side butt-kisses to the point of giving the enemy all they want when they should have used force, see appeasement. For the worst of their peace-at-any-cost actions, apologist.

See also that pansy United Nations. (Come on, we all know Iran won't just give you their nukes!)

Where was I? Oh yes, this category logs the attempts- successful or not -between international bodies and groups at butt-kissing diplomacy.

Have fun.
