"Pacifism doesn't work...in fact pacifism produces world-threatening leaders like Hitler."

That's only if certain nations aren't pacifist. In other words, there's not pacifism then. And that's hardly an excuse for saying that we strike war whenever it suits us. Hitler was a product of hardship, and that hardship was a product of war.

This oddly reminds me of Star Trek Birth of the Federation.

There is a race of pacifists called the Mizarians...

and basically all someone needs to do to conquer them is threaten them.

Which is the problem with pacifism.

It's not that if other nations aren't pacifist it's a problem.

It's if one guy isn't a pacifist it's a problem... because that one guy can just get a stick with a nail in it and then he's running the show.

 

That game wasn't very good... but the battles themselves were amazing.  Just the resource management part was annoying.
