How do you go to war the "right" way? |
|
And if you go to war the "right" way, is it still war or is it just plain old-fashioned imperialism?
Today on TV I have heard 3 Democrats say he went to war the wrong way. I have heard it many times. I have heard even Dean say that...and I don't understand how you go to war the right way.
:shrug:
I am tired of hearing that phrase. I resent it no matter who says it.

3. I thought the US traditionally had only one reason for war...... |

that we were in immediate danger. You sound as though you think there could be others.

5. Having a problem with the word reasons? |
|
There are multiple reasons.
Immediate danger is one. So is fighting someone who attacked us. And so is a pre-emption, but ONLY if we are absolutely sure our information is correct.
