>>My view is that mass murder is not something you want to get busy justifying -- no matter what ends you seek, it is still mass murder and there is nothing holy or noble or righteous about it. And it cuts both ways -- we cannot say that we only engage in mass murder when we have a darn good reason -- everybody always says they have a darn good reason, and it just makes you a less-than honorable person.<<

gst, i totally agree. history has shown all who will see that sane, rational folks will permit heinous evil... it just has to be "justified" some how.

evil is evil. good is good. the WHO doesn't matter. if we go and wholesale slaughter thousands of arab civilians then we are terrorists, too, imho. killing civilians is killing civilians (even if they hate the US). if we go in and nail the ratb*s behind this bombing then we are doing a good thing.

we don't want to allow evil to transform us into evil. it surely wants to.
