Michael, the original 'point' that Ish was responding to, if one can dignify it with the name, was that Agent Orange is just the same as using chemical weapons, the corollary being that America should be ashamed of itself, repent appropriately, has no right to disapprove of Saddam's CWs, etc.

Even though Agent Orange has been found to have some harmful side effects (& I have no clue of just sound the data is or how much exposure is required), it is not therefore correct to conclude that using Agent Orange is just the same as shooting off shells filled with sarin or VX, as one of the sillier local posters suggested.
