Ah, the famous "we kill people, but they kill MORE" defense. See, here's the problem, you are arguing a 'more evil' position. And the fact is there is not 'more evil'; there is simply evil. What the US has done is evil. Morally reprehensible. And all the worse because we KNOW BETTER. We have laws specifically preventing these behaviors and our government ignored those laws over and over and over again. We tortured, for years, people whose only crime was being the wrong religion. We are STILL torturing people who are still charged with no crimes. Your defense is "well, Saddam tortured more" which is completely missing the point. -- Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have. _______________________________________________ OSX-Nutters mailing list | [email protected] http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters List hosted at http://cat5.org/
