I get that.
I've been around long before google existed
and we called the German Lugar a parabellum pistol, but it was really
the cartridge that gve it the name.
Now if you make two words out of it, (as in para bellum) it has
something to do with peace and war.

i thought i said that? it was in the original post and i didn't see
any need in quoting all of it... especially when i was confirming
your NOTE :)
para bellum: latin - "Prepare for War"
para bellum: latin - "Prepare for War"
My understanding of the phrase is "If you want peace, prepare for war."

no, that's the whole latin phrase, "Si vis pacem, para bellum"...
"prepare for war" is only the last part, "para bellum" (with the
space) ;)
