Who was the US President who said “carry a big stick but talk softly?”
I am not suggesting for one moment that India and China should remain weak militarily. They both need to be able to defend themselves.
To answer your question on “I can only tell you that not one can build peace without strength” most conflicts has been in the past have been started through miscommunication.
We have no excuses now.
You will note that throughout the cold war between the USSR and the US there was no Armageddon. Both leaders had a direct telephone line.
As to troubadours with a political opinion such as John Lennon, I think they should stick to entertaining us or put their money were their mouths are and not into tax havens. So to me they have little credibility.
As to the African problem with the sick and poor and starving and the orphans I have no answer. I have no intention of subsidising the Warlords of this continent.
On your comment to Erencius about the last four hundred years of invaders into China etc, perhaps the problem started with China? It was not sovereign nation much like Germany and Italy in the mid eighteen hundreds..
The process of gaining access into ports was expedited by Chinese merchants and corrupt officials.
 We may be reading history from different books however
