The war might not currently involve shooting, but that doesn't mean I am not "at war". And really, it is up to you. It takes two to tango, but only one to wage war. If you say you are at war with him, that makes it true.
Same here.
If you look at Stars the other way around... I've heard rumours about some alien life forms out there who believe in a natural state of peace... If both parties don't want war, they will not find a casus belli but a reason to settle the disputes peacefully.
And if that's not the case but one party looks for a casus belli, one will find one.
Every other further discussion is about the diplomacy game some wicked people are so happy to play, sigh, instead of letting the lasers speak for themselves, o joy.
