What? For telling the people pushing the war that they needed MORE
cannonfodder, more weapons, more carpetbombing, if we were going to
INVADE a sovereign nation of people who, for the most part, had no major
gripes with their government thatr weren't gripes created by an
international embargo gerrymandered in the U.N.?
Sick.
As with my last post, if you can't tell, I'm disgusted with the belief
that there was ANY OVERWEANING REASON FOR *ANY* NATION TO BE INVOLVED IN
TOPPLING THE SOVEREIGN GOVERNMENT OF IRAQ.
...and any rationalization to that effect, by anyone, of any political
persuasion, is perverse.
