Of course i agree with your post. And this is always a problem: One of the problems of building an international alliance is the need to work with dubious regimes with doubtful aims. (Also true is that every decision made by a state is a lesser-of-two-evils calculation.) As Hitchens wrote about The Al-Shifa pharmaceutical plant: <<To mention this banana-republic degradation of the United States in the same breath as a plan, deliberated for months, to inflict maximum horror upon the innocent is to abandon every standard that makes intellectual and moral discrimination possible. To put it at its very lowest, and most elementary, at least the missiles launched by Clinton were not full of passengers.>>
