What causes human beings to resort to violence and force is fear.
Fear is the cause of all the world's conflicts.
From domestic violence to international wars.
The root of it all is fear.
Brutality and intimidation are fear of weakness.
Or more precisely fear of being called weak which is fear of being overpowered.
Bullying - whether in the schoolyard or on the international stage - is the result of this fear.
So where there is conflict we should look to the fears that lie beneath the surface.
If we address these fears the conflict will be resolved.
And there will be Peace.
