We are too often ignorant or forgetful,
Abraham Lincoln protested the Mexican War by demanding that the President, who had stated in his war message that "Mexican troops have attacked American troops on American soil, show the spot of the attack. Of course, the spot did not exist. It was carried out on Mexican territory that Texas and later the U.S. claimed was ours. Mexico did not cede this territory till after the Mexican War.
I cite numerous "Christian" leaders as found in the Daily Kos.
