Battling Iraq, has nothing to do with the reparations issue, What about original sin though? God took a stand against slavery when the Jews were enslaved by Egypt, that evil was continued here, until recently and it may be that the sin continues until as Lincoln said, until all the wealth piled by the bond-man's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash, shall be paid by another drawn with the sword. You may not have personally held a slave just as you did not personally eat of the tree of knowledge, yet original sin remains until the sin is redeemed. Iraq is just another opportunity to shed blood, although a lot was shed in the Civil War itself, so maybe reparations remain as a way to return the wealth created by slavery, and so complete the redemtion.
