In Soloviev's novel, "Short Story about the Antichrist" Soloviev stated that an invicible army could bring peace upon the World, since it can not be defeated, and thus, threatening everyone with it would stop wars. That's kinda the method used by Tokugawa Bakufu, until the Bakumatsu period at least.

Well, they were wrong, since US got the best army in the world and continue to kill more than anyone else for bullshit reasons. But it is possible to act in another way, in theory, since Tokugawa did.

As for me, I am not completely anti-War. In fact, I think there is no philosophical basis for that kind of... stance... so it can't be the right one.
