Why didn't we stand against apartheid? In fact....we helped it happen.
Why did we ignore Rwanda?
Why did we put Augusto Pinochet in power and then allow him to kill thousands?
Why did we sell the chemicals to Saddam that he used to kill his own people? Why did continue to sell them to him even after he did it?

Link to US selling weapons to Saddam
http://www.iranchamber.com/history/articles/arming_iraq.php

The U.S. continued to do business with the government in power during apartheid....and thus supported it.
While actually, Fidel Castro, for all the evil he has done, helped end it.

And the notion that we are crusading against evil is not mine....that belongs to George W. and all those that support him in his campaign against "evil doers"

Good Point. Let us Christianize Arabia, with George W. Bush carrying the cross at the head of Christian American forces.

Or so they say. Whether this is practical or wise I can't say.

Don't forget that we also supported Castro's overthrow of Batista, until he showed himself to be a marxist thug. He also murdered thousands, and continues to oppress his people and violate their rights.

Not so sure your charge about selling chemical weapons to Saddam is correct. I'm pretty sure they got those from France and Russia, like most of their weaponry. If you have any proof of this charge, please produce it.

We ignored Rwanda because Clinton was a moral coward who did not have the courage to do the right thing if there was any political risk.

And the apartheid thing - we had no hand in that whatsoever.

And, finally, we are not crusading against all the worlds evils. That's a stupid statement.

We are globalizing not Crusading. In other words we are cutting our own throats while or elected officials line their pockets.

We should take the rock from Meccha and place it in Vatican City and rename it the Rock of Christ
