(62,325 posts)hard against and I find it reprehensible, as someone above said, to equate the killing eg, of a 15 year old US Citizen to the killing of Hitler on a Democratic Site. I saw these arguments from Bush supporters, who had zero respect for human life, especially if that life was Arab or Muslim.
We are not killing Hitlers with these dreadful weapons which I know one day will be banned and the sooner the better.
We are killing innocent men, women and many, many beautiful, innocent children, just as Bush did in Iraq, and I cannot believe what has happened to this forum where during the Bush years, the immorality of these policies was never in doubt.
Using countries like Pakistan and Yemen as showcases for our latest WMDs is vile, horrible and criminal. But it has worked, the sale of drones is sky high.
We have lost our soul as a nation. I have such admiration though for those who have refused to do so.
