The important thing with some of these cowards is that we are winning. A few thousand more dismembered children is a small price to pay.

Do you then oppose all war for any purpose? You must because no war can be fought with a guarantee of no civilian casulties.

Whatever deaths of children are going to occur in the war to overthrow Saddam's regime (and I know there have been a few and may be some more, but I'm sure they are going to be very very few and the result of tragic mistakes), the number is undoubtedly smaller than the number Saddam's regime would have killed.

Consider also that tomorrow children will die in traffic accidents in America. Probably many times more than will die tomorrow in Iraq from the war. Of course, if we stopped using our vehicles immediately, none of these American children will die. Do you think we should stop driving? "All those kids dying", you must want to stop that.
