I also wonder why it's wrong to intervene when a corrupt madman threatens his country's people,

Well, this madman hasn't threatened its people much over the last few years. At least not any more than say, the military dictator of Pakistan... oops, I keep on forgetting he's on our side....

>> I also wonder why it's wrong to intervene when a corrupt madman threatens his country's people, not to mention his neighbors and others, but it was wrong NOT to intervene on behalf of the oppressed peoples of SA. We should only intervene when the country is run by people who are only a threat to their own people and against whom economic sanctions and diplomatic pressure might work? <<

i'm waiting for you to call for an intervention in israel on behalf of oppressed palestinians. or are you going to be a hypocrite as usual?
