Message: Entry: The Rise of the Post-paleos (a second look) Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/the_rise_of_the_post_paleos_a_second_look#30796 Post contents: Exactly, in what sense is the war in Iraq "restrained?" From a financial perspective, it is already the second costliest war in history. We should also acknowledge that this war was entirely fraudulent -- Iraq did not have any WMD, or connections with al-Qaeda, or any plans to invade the United States. (In Gulf War I -- love it or hate it -- Iraq really did invade Kuwait.) So while some anti-war conservatives argue that the war was a strategic blunder, it still doesn't take away from the fact that it was also a war crime. Civilized societies practice justice. Therefore, we should all seek to bring Bush, Cheney, et al up on charges of war crimes. Sent at: 2008 12 02
