pugilistic-diplomacy

When involved in a politically-tense situation and all progress has halted in discussions, it is the practice of applying percussive-logic to your opponent in the form of a beat-down.

"Justin was ignorantly speaking about 'homos' again last night at the bar. But my gay cousin was with us and got really upset. So I stuck up for my cousin and argued with Justin until he threw a beer at me. At that point I switched to pugilistic-diplomacy and prevailed in the argument."

Kennedy tells the ExComm that going to war in the face of Khrushchev's offer to trade missiles would be "an insupportable decision." JFK agreed to the terms set by Khrushchev that was Appeasement. NOT even diplomacy.
