I tend to think that use of military force for defence is something
different from use for an aggresive offencive war (as in this case).
It has begun, so shame on the world.
Let's stop this discussion before it gets out of hand like it almost
did last time. People don't have to agree, that's democracy as far as
I am concerned.
Peace!
