The issue with fire bombing Dresden drops right in the middle of this. I understand ZERO is going to apologize for the 18-20,000 civilians who may have died during the raids.

By the time Dresden was firebombed, the allies were well aware of what was going on in the NAZI concentration camps. That weighed heavily on trying to force a quick end to the war, to save as many as possible the oven fried feeling. Churchill pushed it hard, for FDR to go along, and finally succeeded.

So when ZERO apologizes, ask if he would have rather had another 100,000 innocents cooked to death.

ZERO isn't historically accurate about near everything he says from the start.

Agreed, and I don’t think he is merely ignorant, but deliberately deceptive.

What saddens me is not Tiller’s death, but the apparent inability for many (if not most) of us to distinguish between the innocent and the guilty.

True justice punishes the guilty (Tiller) and protects the innocent (his thousands of victims). Our society’s definition of “justice” protects the murderer (Tiller) and ignores the slaughtered innocents.

Again, this is what saddens me, particularly when those who call themselves believers, or Christians, ignore the clear teachings of Scripture about “justice,” and pollute our thinking with miguided notions of non-violence which actually increase the shedding of innocent blood in our midst.
