65. presumably it makes them less willing to tolerate their presence
Edited on Mon Jul-24-06 09:35 PM by pitohui
after a certain point if you house and feed the enemy you are yourself the enemy

if a man commits murder and i allow him to stay in my house for a few days i am charged as an accessory

i think this is the rationale and it doesn't seem entirely illogical to me

we invaded afghanistan after mullah omar housed and fed and took money from osama bin laden for 5 years, allowing him to have training camps etc. for the men who attacked us, same logic, i don't see how we can stand all high and mighty and criticize when we would do the very same
