All very altruistic, that version of the military you have. One unfortunate thing you forget, though, is that HUMANS must be involved. With instruments of death available, those who want to use them for offense rather than deterrent will inevitably rise to positions of being able to use them for the offenses they desire.
You cannot stop human nature. The world, alas, will always be ruled by those willing to do what the next man will not. This is why terrorism, as a tactic, will never be eradicated.
