"That's the difference between us and them."

How are you so sure, tom? Between us and Saddam and his cadre, sure. But who are you including in 'Them' and how many other 'not thems' (the other guiys who are like us) do we have to slaughter to take out the 'thems'... And how the hell does that then make that difference between 'us and them' clear.

If Iraq had attacked america. If Iraq was a clear and immediate danger- we would be justified in this.

If The Iraqi people had pleaded with us, asked us, implored us to liberate them- If they had been willing to accept the death we bring to their reluctant soldiers and unwilling civilians- then we would be right in this.

But the fact is, we Ain't neither right nor justified. Aint it a bitch?
