It looks like we agree on many things. I will take a leap on something we dont agree on. As I mentioned above, we once dropped atomic bombs on an enemy and at the time there were many discussion around a simple question....do we do it or do we not. The doctor behind it all understood that creating great destruction and pain in the short term would save long term pain and destruction.
We can watch this happen for another 3000 years or we can rip the bandaid off. As far as who I want to be ripping the bandaid off in victory, well, not the people that act like its still 1300 who are wreaking havoc in Europe and who think raping women as a form of punishment and jailing them for making eye contact is acceptable. The Israel - Palestine outcome still has much to be debated but I am very glad you and the other liberals in this thread had no influence on past events, such as Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
