157. From death, torture and despair.
We broke the friggin country. We invaded. We have a moral responsibility to protect these people.

A moral responsibility. We don't just waltz in, break the place apart and then leave and throw up our hands and abandon human beings to death. It wrong.

What we need is a better way to get out that tries to protect the innocent. Americans used to believe in protecting the innocent. We can't just abandon our responsibility and pretend we don't have any just because we hate *. This is morally wrong. (And is at least as wrong as * invading.)
