Snip out all the stuff. Whatever.
If your gov't is allowing oppression in certain countries because it suits
your countrys needs and wants, and yet goes to wars with other countries
because it suits your needs--I like how Iraq is an American issue whereas N
Korea is an international issue. And yet Iraq has oil and no nucs, and N
Korea has nucs and no oil. And so many other reasons to make, not only me,
but many people in the world, say that the US is *not* morally justified in
their little war with SH.
Obtuse? Using and ignoring the UN at whim?
Saddam is a bad man, and we need to work at changing the living conditions
of the Iraqi people. Is "the American Way" the only way? is it the best way?
And in the end, *I* don't think so. But now that it's started, finish it.
