Re: a knot for your thread!
If you're implying that Buddist countries don't wage war, I think you're mistaken. The Japanese Samurai warriors were Buddists, at least according to the History Channel program on them, and they were quite warlike. Japan is a combination of Shinto and Buddist. Until recently, no one confused them with pacifists.
There have been wars throughout history in every region of the world, including Buddist nations. Buddist monks are by nature and training pacifists but that doesn't apply to all Buddists, at least according to this one.
