Heres a question for the thread in general.
The same folks who are vehemently against the iraq war led a rally to stop genocide in Darfur and asked the US to intervene. What happens if we do intervene and Al Quada carries out its threat to fight the peacekeepers and after three years there is a brutal civil war going on using the terror tactics now being used in iraq and there are 1000 american deaths. Are the liberals who are leading the charge on this willing to pay the price if it comes to that? I think that there are 180,000 deaths in Darfur already but didnt saddam also kill several hundered thousand plus those who died in the wars he started?????? Now why is one ok and the other is not? Perhaps because they are calling for UN action. OK but what if the world doesnt choose to intervene with troops--what then. Are these folks are saying never again and arguing for US actions alone?? Just questions from me--i havent thought this through yet.
