Moonglow,
You are probably another one of these card-carrying liberal elites that became a hawk after the Gulf War. The so called "smart weapons" really turned all these liberal bozos into war mongers. They love the concept of sanitary war in which you simply push a button and the bad guys go away. In reality though, war is still war, and the civilian casualty list grows with each conflict. Consider that the World Health Organization estimates that over 1 million Iraqi citizens have died since the Gulf War as a result of "collateral damage" to water treatment plants, waste treatment, medical facilities, and starvation. Nothing has really changed at all, except that liberal Americans think that we now can fight wars (Clinton has bombed 4 countries in the past year alone) all over the globe and that all the children are still safe in their beds.
