On the all-important question of power-the efficacy of power, the morality of power, the desirability of power-Americans and European perspectives are diverging.

Seeing as the former bloodiest continent has been tamed since WWII, to what extent do the Europeans have a point? Where do the flaws exist in their logic-and where/when should hard power be utilized to bring about longer-lasting peace?
