Five Arguments Against Conciliation
2006-09-29
I'm here to drop a coprolite in that particular punchbowl. I'm opposed to conciliation, and I'll give you five reasons why it's a bad idea:
- - - - - - - - - -
1. It's wrong.
2. It's a strategic blunder.
3. It will never achieve its objective.
4. It's a one-way ratchet.
5. We harm ourselves when we do it.


These reasons run the gamut from simple moral calculus to the cold appraisal of self-interest.
