I will say in Baker's defense (not that I suppose he needs it)

that diplomacy is a superior form of war than throwing turds. It's a delicate movement of energy based solely on words.

Savages throw turds. Gentlemen speak words.

Diplomacy is preferred until war is required. Premature war is an admission of absent diplomatic skills. War is not a sign of valor, but of a failed gaming skill set.

War-making powers should be retained only by diplomats. They know what they're doing.
