OR peace requires is one individual who chooses to have it within unconditionally. Call it compassion, gods love, or what you may. And a group of those individuals is what I was refering too.
One can choose not to be a victim, although to an outsider it may appear that they are. I was not a victim when a warmonger threw a rock at me while I peacefully advocated peace. In my perspective, the perpetrator and victim are one and the same when it comes to violence. For being peaceful perpetrates peace, now who wants to be a victim of that?
