re: #81 Targetpractice

I’m actually listening to wingnuts and dudebros alike make the case for either inaction or even going so far as to suggest that Obama should be supporting Assad against the rebels. They’re absolutely convinced now that the rebels are all members of Al-Q and that the best thing America can do is support the despot against the terrorists. Or to just continue sitting on our hands and wait to see which “lesser evil” wins.

It’s hard not to see that Cold War realpolitiks being pushed as the “moral” choice.

The position you attribute to wingnuts and dudebros is very similar to mine.

I’m not a pacifist, I just don’t know who to kill.
