Moral Equivalencies are what landed us in Iraq in the first place..

Edited on Sun May-08-11 10:35 AM by Peacetrain

When the powers that be in Washington tried to paint Iraq as center of Terrorism.. all Muslim countries as centers of Jihad.. because Bin Laden was allowed to ferment in Afghanistan... it took us down a road we have been trying to get off of for the last 10 years.

The painting of everything with one broad brush of political philosophy and opinion is not a thinking mans way of dealing with the broader world. It is totally a gut thought. And it applies to of all sides of the political spectrum.

Edit:

What landed us in Iraq was bush, cheney and oil corporations. Not morality. Pure greed and irreleavaence of life got us there.

In short, a war crime. They need to go to prison for life, whether a short one or a long one doesn't matter.

5. Yes, annoying jiberish is for almost all people.

I take it I was correct to assume you have no "truths" to uncover for us?
