An opportunity

Read this article about the prison camps of North Korea and see if that doesn't sound like an evil government to you. If it doesn't, then you probably thought Auschwitz and the whole Nazi killing machine wasn't evil either. Keep in mind that this is a government that has let some 2 million of its people starve while spending its resources on their military and nuclear program. But I guess calling them evil is wrong, isn't it?

As for Iraq, Saddam Hussein has invaded neighboring countries and started wars that cost over a million lives. He has diverted resources from the oil sales to his own personnel benefit while untold thousands of his people have suffered and died. But calling him "evil" is just wrong, isn't it?

Iran is one of the world's largest supporters of terrorism, but calling them "evil" must be wrong, too?

What is it about you that causes you to avoid the hard truth about these countries? Are Western Europeans (excepting the Brits, thank goodness for them) that whipped that they can't admit the truth anymore?
