16. We must evolve first.
From thinking that war settles any foreign problems with other countries.

Until the cowboy attitude that Bush displayed while he was in the White House - "we're going to get him dead or alive" - is viewed as a stupid response to a serious international problem, we can not evolve much beyond that.

Instead of invading Afghanistan after 9/11 to get Osama, we should have joined the ICC and asked our allies in the UN to help us arrest him and his henchmen.
