re: #221 wrenchwench

Are you saying it was worse in Egypt than it was in Iraq?

I don’t know which was worse, but I’d sure hesitate to say one was not as bad as the other.

No - I specifically said that there was a distinction, but that is a weak defense for the invasion of Iraq as we supported Egypt and other brutal autocracies - making is blatantly hypocritical and exposing the lie behind the “we invaded for the sake of the Iraqis” argument.
