>>and it's WRONG to dislike a mercenary in an illegal war? If I didn't know any better, I would think that you like war criminals.<<

Well, I'm glad you know better, because that is the further thing from the truth ... and a mistating of my position.

I did not say you couldn't dislike them. There are plenty of people I dislike for their positions, but I would never, ever say "Fuck 'em!" if they were killed. That's a line I can't cross... sorry.

That man has a family. As I asked up-thread, would you say that to them in person, to their face? As difficult as it is to do, I'm trying to separate the politics from the humanitarian issue here. Are human beings only worthy if they match your beliefs? Are they a waste of space and air if they don't? Do you think MLK would celebrate the death, or worse, dismiss the death, of an opponent?
