Entry: Mutual Assured Damnation Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/mutual_assured_damnation#2907 Post contents: This is the first blog I've seen comment on the FT pro-war debacle. I'm thrilled to know I'm not alone on this. I've tried to see the good in the magazine. I kept up my subscription thinking maybe they'd come around. But Lowell, you're right, they have too much to lose. And they have been complicit in mass murder of innocents. Modern war, weapons, circumstances have changed the face of Just war theorizing. Weigel reacted to that by loosening up the requirements for a just war. And the church reacted by tightening up the requirements. When millions can die with one bomb, who do you think is the wiser, more Christian of the theorists? I doubt that FT and its writers on this matter will ever recover from their failure on this.
