Peace doesn't just happen. It's not a gift. It's not free. It survives because someone is willing to stand in the way when danger comes. This book is about that reality and about living in a world where calm and violence aren't opposites, where mercy means more when you're capable of harm, and where doing nothing can cost more than taking action. You'll read about: Why "peace at any cost" isn't peace at all. How discipline and control keep strength from turning into recklessness. The danger of false peace and the price of inaction. What it means to balance aggression with compassion. Why readiness matters more than good intentions. When Violence Is Virtue isn't about glorifying war or violence. It's about understanding them; their place, their limits, and the responsibility that comes with the ability to use them. If you believe peace is worth protecting, this book is for you.
