Go to iraqbodycount.org, if you're convinced claims of civilian death are false fuel for liberal rage. This is just Iraq, mind...the death and destruction wrought by your heroes, the American military, elsewhere in the world, would be a much larger number.

If you think the 9/11 attacks were for no reason, examine the U.S.'s foreign policy a little more closely.

I'm not asking this to be insulting; I'm genuinely curious: do you truly believe that the Iraq War is a philanthropic deed, the sole motive for invasion being to kindly liberate the people from an oppressive regime? If that's the case, I guess they need to invade Saudi Arabia, China, half of Africa, etc. next. Or...perhaps ulterior motives come into play?

And hey, I'm not anti-American in the sense that I have anything against the people, and I'm equally critical of my own government's moronic decision to go into Afghanistan.

Oh, by the way, trying to justify civilian death in a whirlwind of rhetoric is cool and to be expected. Denying its existence is not. I have a friend who's joining the army next year, and we've had countless debates about the morality of armed intervention...he also denies Afghani civilians are being murdered by Canadian troops. Japan also claims to this day that the Nanking Massacre was a big exaggeration.
