KA: The Buddha acted as a mediator or peacemaker himself three times. Two out of the three times resulted in a resolved conflict, and one did not. One success was among the monks of Kosambi and the other between Koliyan and Sakyan states. I do not know the failure but will find out.

The failure as when the Shakyans were all killed; when the Shakyans gave a bride to the neighbouring king he thought was a Shaykan noble but was in reality just a slave or similar lowling.

The Buddha turned back the armies on two occassion, but on the third occassion, the Buddha practised equinimity, regarding the dishonest actions of the Shakyans too severe and the anger of the neighbouring king also too severe to be able to stop.

So the Buddha's former clan was anihilated in his presence.
