Britain at war

Britain could be described as a nation at peace, as there is no war going on within its shores.
But it could hardly be described as a peaceful nation.
The UK is one of the most aggressive arms-traders in the world, supplying lethal weapons to countries with deplorable histories of corruption and victimisation of the poor by official and rogue militias.
In the circumstances, any involvement by the UK in global peace initiatives can only lack credibility, till it puts its money where its mouth is and stops equipping the rest of the world for terrorism and war.
