Isn't it ironic that we try to achieve peace by having weapons that can obliterate the world in a matter of minutes.
You contradict yourself. On the one hand you do not want nuclear weapons because it can destroy the whole world, and on the other hand you are opposed to destroy the enemy until he has a chance to destroy the world.
I don't think he is contradicting himself he is just saying that it's ironic and maybe hypocritical for people to use weapons that kill and causes mass destruction as a means to bring peace whiles dialogue and reasoning is the best option
