	Third Servile War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Third Servile War was the only one to directly threaten the Roman heartland of Italia and was doubly alarming to the Roman people due to the repeated successes of the rapidly growing band of rebel slaves against the Roman army between 73 and 71 BC.
		The war ended in 71 BC when, after a long and bitter fighting retreat before the legions of Crassus, and the realization that the legions of Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus and Marcus Terentius Varro Lucullus were moving in to entrap them, the armies of Spartacus launched their full strength against Crassus' legions and were utterly destroyed.
		The effects of the Third Servile War on the Roman attitudes towards slavery, and the institution of slavery in Rome, are harder to determine.

	Pacifism and War
		Since war is the most supreme human act of violence, naturally pacifists are, at least in theory, principled opponents of war.
		War and violence, as I have argued, is endemic to capitalism, and especially its modern form, imperialism.
		War is the continuation, by forcible means, of the politics pursued by the ruling classes of the belligerent Powers long before the outbreak of war.

	Iraq Deployment Shows the East German Syndrome, by Tim Shorrock
		Since World War II, Japan has played a subservient role to the United States in foreign policy on nearly every issue to come its way.
		Its servile role has often been embarrassing, and frequently left many observers with the impression that Japan was no more than a bit player to its master in Washington.
		In fact, as the two nations celebrated the 50th anniversary of the US-Japan Security Treaty in November, Japanese leaders appeared to be bent on deepening their reliance on the United States, seemingly without any national debate about whether a close military alliance with the United States is in Japan's best interest or not.
