So i guess im just asking myself where all the pro-Iraq war people are at the moment? I would like to see any disprovements of the worsening the invasion has had on the average iraqis life. |
Well, I think it's rather obvious the pro-war hawks and their support base (for the most part) couldn't care less about human life or diginity. Especially when it comes to people who don't live with in their own borders, share their ethnicity, culture, or religion. These are the only people I've ever met who try to justify the use of torture, bomb the shit out of other countries, and argue how we should give up our rights and liberties for brining/defending "freedom." Is it just me, or do these people not have a conscience, any principles, empathy for their fellow man, or ability to be honest to themselves at all?
