today ian wern had a discussion with me.
i came to this conclusion: i firmly believe that the best way to keep peace is to maintain a Nash equilibrium between all parties.
maybe it's because i always assume the worst in people and their tendency to be selfish.
nothing can keep them in check other than the fact that they know that there's someone out there with an equal or greater ability to annihilate them.
it's like a multiplayer chess game where each player is one move away from checkmating another while knowing that making that move will entail him being checkmated by a 3rd party.
i believe there's a Cold War doctrine that's called Mutual Assured Destruction that sounds like this.
maybe that's why the Cold War never flared up.
