I've pointed out to you before, the issue of a millions of people starving is simply a gloom-and-doom assumption at this point.
The people running the refugee agencies on the ground in Afghanistan(Oxfam, UNHCR, Save the Children) do not agree with you. There is a catastrophe in the making and it is only getting worse by the day. Unless you have firsthand experience from the refugee camps, I will listen to those who know.
1. Since all killing is wrong, was it wrong of the allies to kill Hitler's war machine and free thousands of people from concentration camps?
2. Since all killing is wrong, should we simply disband our military and not defend America if an invading army attacks us?
Because of my beliefs, I could never endorse any strategy that involves the murder of people anywhere, anytime. Bring them to justice by all means before the world in the Hague, but let us not try to solve the problem of misery by inflicting more misery. That is my belief, and it should be the belief of anyone who calls themselves a religious person. One cannot go to Church on Sunday and come home and support War; the two are mutually exclusive by definition, and yet I always hear people with "love of God" calling for war. That is laughable and a perversion of everything right and just.
