A simple knife can be enuf provided u r vigilant enuf use U r comon sense rather than go for nuke bombs which only attract sanctions against U..
Wanting the world to be a place where a simple knife would do, is an idealistic and simplistic view of how the world stands today. NO a knife will NOT do. We are a couple of centuries past that now. We have to think on a bigger scale and trust the powers that be, to do the best job possible for all of us globally.
You are asking a lot of very pertinent questions here, most of which I can't answer, because I am no expert, but the saddam hussein issue was to make a point of showing no tolerance for neclear weapons among Arab nations. Little countries and large continents are different and have to be treated differently according to populations and arms and debt and resources and such. Ireland, or Vietnam could not be dealt with, for instance the same way China could, or America, or Australia, because the amalgamation of their resources to fight back would be much different. You have to think about national affiliations too and deals already made and signed.
Economic deals go on all the time behind closed doors to STOP wars. They often include economic concessions and remapping boundaries. Just think, if China decided to really go to war, they have enough people there and weapons and technology (they lead the world in that field), to devastate the planet, ad they could do it economically or with weapons as well as head count.
Its negative... I would rather channel my valuable energies into some more positive!! And, let's face it.... half the time they're not worth it anyway!
