No flames here. I should remind you, however, that it was not until Pearl Harbor that the U.S entered WWII, despite what can easily be seen as a threat to this country's national security long before.

The question of intervention on moral grounds is indeed fraught with tension. You have stated it well. I don't have an answer ready to hand and I doubt that anyone else does. At what point do atrocities demand intervention in defense of pure humanity? And if there is a point, what form should that intervention take and by whom should it be undertaken?
