- You got any clear idea yet what the Defence family is actually trying to achieve? Looks almost as if they've made up their minds to start a war all by them selves! - What do you mean "start"?!. I don't believe you haven't seen it's already begun! The question we've got to try to answer is; How will it end?.. ... - You as a policeman, Goto, me as a selfdefenceforce spook... What is it the two of us are actualy trying to protect? It's fifty years since the end of World War 2... We've lived our lives never having known war... Violence - yes, but that's recognised as criminal, never a time when the whole country was dedicated to legal violence. Peace... Is it peace we're working to protect?.. What has peace ment for this country?.. for our city?.. for us?.. All the effort and passion Japan put into the war ended in Hiroshima in defeat... Then the americans came;.. bringing their nuclear deturrent, their cold war, their Hollywood chewinggum war and now all over the world there are bullet wars, civil wars, suffering, misery, death. We are a rich country! And what is our wealth built on? The bloody corpses of all these wars! They're the fundation of our peace. We now put the same effort into indifference that our parents put into war! Other countries comfortably far away pay the price for our prosperous peace... We've learned very well how to ignore their suffering. - No matter how repulsive the peace, it's still vital to guard it. It may be an immoral peace, may be an unjust peace, but an unjust peace is still better than a just war! - I share your revultion about just wars! If there ever was such a thing it was the war against the nazis! Our allies, Goto, our allies! But how many millions throughout history have died in the cause of what their lying leaders called "just wars"? In the end it seems to me that the line between a just war and an unjust peace is very faint indeed. If the just war is a lie, is the unjust peace less of a lie? We are told there is peace, but we look around us and even if we can not give it words our eyes tell us we can not believe what we are being told. In the end every war gives a way to peace, so called. And every so called peace is the dorment seed of war... So it's only a matter of time till the hard reality of war sweeps away our illusion that the absence of war is peace. So I ask you agin: What are we working to protect? We enjoy peace on our TV screens, while just outside the camerashot the war is rageing. We forget we're just a camera angle behind the battle lines. no, we don't forget... We quite simply refuse to remember. That can not go on! Sometime, somehow, we will be punished! - Punished?!.. By who?.. By God? - Anyone in this world could be like God. Most in a universe not bigger than their own minds... all present, all knowing... and yet, impotent outside the confinds of their heads. And what God can not do - men will attempt! Unless... Unless we stop them... They must be stopped! That is our task...
