Hey Cool: Libertarian Pacificim

[infrogmation]

I came across a short article which gave me one of those "Hey, that's pretty much what I've believed for a long time, only said better!" moments.

It turns out that there is a branch of Libertarianism that's basically Pacifist.

Working from a non-agression principle they arive at this conclusion; basically that just defensive war might arguably be hypothetically possible, but given how modern wars are actually fought in reality the likelyhood is pretty close to nil.

I wish I'd seen that years ago when I was discussing my beliefs on usenet in threads started by articles like this one or this.
