It means for you to give only a short explanation, not to give the long answer. War and Peace is a huge novel, the person only wants the details, not an epic yarn.

What is the paradoxical meaning of go to war for peace?

You can't always have peace by being peaceful, sometimes you have to fight a war to obtain peace, because no matter how peaceful you may be, you can still be invaded by some other less peaceful country. War is the opposite of peace, so it is paradoxical that you might have to use war to obtain peace. No matter how much you dislike war, even if you think it is absolutely the worst possible thing, you may still have to fight one. World War One was described at the time as "the war to end all wars" although this tragically proved to be quite wrong. We try to create peace by defeating the people who want war, yet even when we do so, there always seems to be a new reason for war. So, we can observe that even though we sometimes have to go to war in order to have peace, that is not a complete solution. We need a more evolved form of human civilization, in order to have a lasting peace. But we may have to go to war, on the way to achieving that objective. And in the nuclear age, war is more dangerous than ever before. It is possible that we may someday have a war that is so destructive that it will finally result in the peace of the grave, for everyone. That too will be a paradoxical outcome, a war that everybody loses.
