Justifying genocide is the most anti-progressive stance
in existance.
(it does not matter if it is Hiroshima, Sudan, Nanking, Dresden, the slave trade, Gulags, Holocaust or what)

any questions?

1. I would tend to agree with you.
I cannot fathom the numbers of people that take the idea of causing death to another so lightly.

3. I agree and we need to admit when we have done wrong
so it doesn't happen again.

4. I have to admit I am always amazed at how lightly they take death
and the lost of life to others outside of our country as if their lives are less worth while then our own. It is all really sick and I can no longer stay to listen to their haterd which is beyond weird or strange.

6. Not just about other countries
But here too, alot of these neocons don't even care about US troops dying in Iraq.

7. Agree. I would also add "justifying collective punishment"
is the second most anti-progressive thing to do. I don't know how people continue to do that and call themselves liberal.

8. To seem, rather than to be.
