It's hard to take the argument seriously when it starts with this:

As vast quantities of blood and treasure are expended abroad, Washington politicians win plaudits domestically for their warmongering, and government contracting at home and abroad burgeon, on what basis is this imperial project—financed by foreign lenders and American taxpayers—justified?...

Even harder to take your counter argument seriously, since you don't appear to have one.

We don't hear much from you jingoists these days.

I have shouted my objection to this multi-"explained" Iraq adventure from day one, stating that its only possible result would be a fruitless waste of blood and treasure.

That remains my story and I'm stickin' to it.
