The Taliban and the Navy Seals - Violence and Nonviolence

Adam discusses the new Raven Foundation project "Be a Hero for Peace" and how violence and non-violence work. Violence is mimetic in that it leads to more violence, and violence that escalates. This happens in our personal lives with physical and verbal violence, but it also happens on a national scale as well. What's the way out? Nonviolence, forgiveness, and love. Nonviolence, used in the spirit of love and forgiveness, is the force that allows us to see our enemies as human and allows our enemies to see us as human, too.
