So true.
Funny how twisted the justification is in the warmongers minds (see above).

Jesus never lived in the 21st century! If sitting down with our enemys and having tea might have worked, we would certainly have taken that route!

Some times war is the only way to peace.
Ecc 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
Ecc 3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
Ecc 3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
Ecc 3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Ecc 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
Ecc 3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
Ecc 3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
Ecc 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
Ecc 3:9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
Ecc 3:10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
Ecc 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Oh, you're so right. We, who believe in freedom, democracy and basic human rights should have never invaded Iraq. We should have allowed that monster Saddam to continue to torture and murder his own people, gain more and more power, and eventually go back on the warpath against his neighbors.
I guess that would have made Jesus happy for us to just ignore it.
And I guess YOU'D be tickled pink while even more mass graves were dug in the Iraqi desert.

Im sure when the Shrub goes he will join FDR LBJ Truman and Woodrow Wilson in hell too. They had a lot more killed under them than the Shrub did.

Because Jesus knew the difference between right and wrong. Republicans don't.
