Hawkmoon - Once and for all....

1) I am not Monegasque. I come from a country that has fought MANY times in MANY wars, that has also lost thousands to terrorism FAR BEFORE the US woke up to its atrocities slightly over a year ago. And, yes, I enjoy the beaches of Monaco now. Get over your jealousy :) ..... and focus on the issue at hand (i.e. "US foreign affairs") that has nothing to do with Monaco or its beaches.

2) It is a war crime, in my humble opinion, to nuke two civilian cities. Yes, it was a good thing the US won, as the winners hardly ever get tried for war crimes.

3) Whether or not I would have done the same thing is irrelevant. Had I done it, I would be the war criminal in question.

4) Please let go of these debate "tactics" that go more or less in the lines of "You are on a Monaco beach so what do you know" or "You would do the same thing", both of which are highly irrelevant and somewhat annoying as they do not contribute to a good debate.
