Chinese students say they aren't Pacifists.

I did a conversation class where the topic was Taking Responsibility for Our Actions, ostensibly a class about war criminal suspects  and whether they can use the "I was just following orders" excuse.   It is a hard class to get the students to talk about, so I brought up the subject of Pacifism.  Are you a pacifist? I asked each student.  They all said no.  War is sometimes necessary.  One student said that war against Taiwan may be necessary in the future as an example.
