I guess my love affair with Bill Whittle is now over. He is great at speaking and conveying messages. He is right about almost everything almost every time. Except that neocon thing. Listen to his great speech below. So many great points!
Now for the part I don’t agree with: He says if one of our people are killed, we should take out ‘an installation’. You know what the ‘eye for an eye’ theme in the bible is about? It is a lesson that punishment and retaliation should be of the same magnitude as the crime. Escalating the use of force in retaliation is against the teachings of the bible.
And of course the bigger question: Why are Americans getting killed oversees? Is it because we are helping poor? No. Teaching school to illiterate natives? No. Is it because we are supporting regimes and cartels to overthrow governments we don’t like? Yes. Is it because we are bombing the shit out of all kinds of things, which often include the death of women and children? Yes.
