Defense of the nation is a duty a Democratic government cannot ignore. I am also a fan of our efforts in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya to overthrow authoritarian governments and replace them with the power of the people.

The murderers are the people like Saddam and Gaddafi and bin Laden, not the men and women who sign up to fight for justice and freedom in the armies of America and places like England and Germany and France.

I can tolerate everything else you say. However, when you hide and/or defend murder of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, that's when I draw the line. I am extremely disturbed by your undeterred patriotism and reverence of the state, Rarity.

If you find yourself in a position of power one day, may god (if he exists) help your subordinate's souls.

Hiding murder of civilians, eh? You seem very eager to forget Bush only acted because of the murder of thousands of American civilians in New York. I guess a peacenik hippie like you would let that slide, but some of us have friends and family who live in New York and worked in or around those buildings.

Destruction and vengeance builds nothing. It only destroys. We aren't even defending our interests anymore. We are only giving them more incentive to hurt us. We're the enemy now.

Anyways, the losses of 9/11 could of been prevented if the government acted on previous information. The government knew about the attacks before they happened! This could of all been avoided.
