It's not wrong. It's just stupid. "Settled more issues". You know, when you genocide an entire people, every issue you had with them is now "settled".
It's not a recommendation for violence as a solution. It's simply pointing out that it's a common way to end things, good or bad. Usually bad.
Nobody said it was a recommendation. It's a cynical view of how disputes have been solved in the past.
*truthful view
Both can be true at once.
