It's a a great sentiment to have in hindsight but will only take another crisis for comfortable people to get rid of their "common ground" and peacetime understanding of others and be happy with whatever eroding of freedoms are needed for the greater good. We will see it happen again.
The real question therefore should not be "lets find common ground now its peacetime and be friends" but "how can we be resilient to not be enemies in the next war?".
It's a difficult and deep question which requires a kind of secure moral framework to operate in.
