... and this is my problem with this war (actually it is but one of the many sides of me believing this war is evil and sad)... there is now conclusive evidence of no capabilities or stockpiles of wmd's or chemical plants... as far as we can tell, the un's resolutions had proven successful!...
so, i hear a person say its about intent... sadam had intent to harm the united states... even though upon inauguration, pres. bush said they felt there was no threat from iraq!...
and now bush says that even with no imminent threat, we did the right thing?!?...
WE ARE NOT THE WORLD POLICE. THIS IS WHY THE UN IS A GOOD AGENT OF ACCOUNTABILITY. WE CANNOT GO AROUND THE WORLD ATTACKING PEOPLE BECAUSE WE THINK THEY DO NOT LIKE US OR VALUE OUR WAY OF LIFE.
sorry for the yelling, but this seems so clear to me whether you are a republican, democrat, or (as i am) non-partisan (in registration, that is)...
i wish we could use this moment in time to cease the us's fear campaign... challenge the american public to stop looking down on the rest of the world (even in the subtlety of our language) and put ourselves in a place to bring healing to the world...
perhaps i am waxing too philosophically... perhaps its time for bed...
i still plan to respond to my brother's post, but not today...
