There are no moral standards for this war because this is an immoral engagement. From the President down, everyone in command is a murderer. The President is a murderer. The Vice President is a murderer. Gates, Rice, Mukasey, Rumsfield, Petraeus, Armitage, Barber, Wolfowitz, Mullen, Leahy, you name them all, they're murderers. They hired and armed their hit men, aimed them at an innocent nation, and their corporate capitalist buddies reap the benefits of Defense contracts by the billions. They are killing humans for financial gain.
Every Senator and Congressperson who voted for this war, and every one who continues to vote to fund these murders, is culpable. Every single American and Iraqi death is on their hands. They are cowards who hide behind the flag and forswear themselves to safety and reelection.
If we are serious about fighting terrorists, we should begin with the Executive Branch, and work through the Legislative and Judicial.
