Q: Why does France graciously plant trees on both sides of every street, road and highway in the nation?

A: So that invading armies can march in the shade.

Your reply, paraphrased, is:

"I don't give a f**k about children dying in a war...."

Maybe you should face the fact that that is how cold and callous you have become.

Namaste!

Name me a war, a fullscale war, one where a city of 5.5 million people are subject to invasion, that began by democratically-elected leaders whose actions were not supported by the people who elected them!

From the Viet Nam war came the phrase, "It was necessary to destroy the village in order to save it."

Now you squawking rightwing propaganda parrots are trying to apply that morally bereft "logic" to an entire country.

You brought up the Nazis. They started a war too. It was deemed their chief crime at the Nuremberg War Crimes Trial. Initiating war is a clear violation of international law.

Wars are started by the "bad guys." Name one that was started by the "good guys."
