[I say to them BEFORE a discussion on the Iraq campaign. Were you in favor of the operation in Serbia and Kosovo?

If they say Yes. Then I say we have nothing to discuss over Iraq. The operation is the same.

If they say No. Then we can have a discussion. And depending on their point of view. I may just have to respect that.]



That's exactly how it works. But if they say no, then I tell them that my opinion of pacifism (meaning the renunciation of all violence) is that it is inherently wrong and also cowardly. Standing around and watching and making useless gestures of condemnation while genocide takes place is immoral.

Sometimes war IS the answer.

Great post. All I will say to the "thousands" in
Californai is...If we pull out of Iraq...what you
will hear..is not an earthquake...but your shopping
spree at the mall..is a suicide bomber waiting for you..
and you will know it is not a quake...Just elect the
likes of Hillary or Kerry or any of these types and
you have the Clinton hand wringers..and they will
want to arrest these "bad guys"...I am with Bush..
Just kill, baby..kill. Jake

Sometimes war IS the answer.

I shudder to think what this world would look like had Hitler not been opposed.

I shudder to think what this world would look like with all of us under Sharia law, hunting down Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists and the followers of the religion of the non-God, Atheists. The fact that so many of our fellow citizens have no clue to what is written in the Suras, Hadiths, or know who Tabari was is another example of our culture, more interested in men dressing like women, that last episode of Lost, or who won the big game.

People, PEOPLE -- we are fighting the latest expansion by the sword of Islam. This war has never ended, began in the 7th century AD, no peace was ever signed, no treaty ever respected, wake up and defend yourselves.
