The popularity of Peace


History: The peace symbol was designed in a movement for disarmament of nuclear weapons in 1958. The sign is a combination of semaphore signs N and D. The symbol was then popularized in America by a college student studying in Europe in 1958 for an antiwar movement.
Questions: Does the popularity of this symbol cause us to forget its meaning? Soft/Hard power, Is there times where war is necessary to solve a conflict? How do we know when it has come to this?
