David Broder of the Washington Post wrote a column today that interested me very little except that it included the following statement. "But Bush alone decided the threat was so grave that it justified a preventive war -- one that already has cost more than 500 American lives and billions of dollars, with more to come." Thousands of people have died thus far, thousands more are horribly wounded, still more have been made homeless, the financial losses of the Iraqi people are staggering and Broder sums it up in American lives lost and money spent. With all due respect Mr. Broder, FUCK YOU!
Are the lives of people who are not Americans so low in worth that they may only be mentioned, when they are mentioned at all, after discussing the lives of Americans and the American money that has been spent on the war in Iraq? Is there any justification for this whatsoever aside from xenophobia?
