The argument is that Bhima's enemity with the kauravas is all his own a and none of his brothers is really concerned in it. That is reason enough why he should not agree with his brothers in their policy to make peace-why he would have his own way and pursue the policy of keeping alive the enmity till he should have his revenge upon the enemy.
