The only way I can respond to this incredibly foolish post is to reiterate a point Howard Zinn has made repeatedly. Times like these are when it is absolutely vital that we dissent, because right now it is more than the usual politics, it is now a matter of life and death. Afghan civilians will most likely die (or already have, reports are sketchy). This blurs if not eliminates the morality of our actions, making it once again even more vital that we stop and think about what our nation is doing. Even if you come to the conclusion that what we are doing is right, you should still look long and hard, and think deeply and critically before offering your blind (and it is blind, there is almost no information about the retaliatory actions except what we are getting from the U.S. government) support for military action.
