This is logically incoherent. It's just saying that we'll ignore all the reasons world peace is impossible because they're part of the world not being peaceful. We could just as well say that it's possible for humans to fly by flapping their wings - all the reasons why it's impossible are part of humans not flying.

But that would be physically impossible. We don't have wings.

So is world peace. People are all flawed and there's no escaping it.

Maybe "peace" is meaningless without humans to observe it?

Maybe an existential threat is what it would take to bring everyone together.
