WHAT WOULD THE WORLD PEACE FORCE DO?

DISARM THE PLANET EARTH
—ONE NATION AT A TIME

SYNOPSIS:

Warfare has been a fact of life on the planet Earth
ever since tribes of human beings were able to identify themselves
and define other groups as their enemies.

Once nation-states emerged, they often found themselves at war with one another.
But warfare is not the inevitable fate of the our species.
It should be possible to settle disputes between groups of people
without resorting to violence.
The United States of America offers a long-lasting example of
several states that have been able to live at peace with one another for 150 years.
The 50 states of the USA do not commit war against one another
because we have courts of law that settle all disputes as they arise.

The whole planet could follow this pattern:
Instead of going to war as a way of settling disputes,
the parties could submit each dispute to neutral judges,
who would give equal time to each side of the dispute
and then create a ruling that might not be liked by either
but which would be a just settlement of their differences.

As courts of law emerge for setting international disputes,
the need for national military forces diminishes.
And eventually, as our planet becomes more completely civilized,
there will be no need for national military forces at all.

The change to a disarmed world will take place one nation at a time,
beginning with those nations that have misused their military forces most obviously.

OUTLINE:

1. THE WORLD PEACE FORCE WOULD REPLACE ALL NATIONAL MILITARY FORCES.

2. NATIONS OF THE EARTH THAT ARE ALREADY DISARMED.
