Countries don't get into wars to help out people who are being oppressed.
This thread, and the picture on the magazine cover, made me think about this. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=9132861&mesg_id=9132861

The US isn't in Afghanistan to protect women from abuse, the US didn't get into WWII to save the Jews, and the American Civil War wasn't fought to free the slaves.
