    Yep, he means it. A lot of people do. They forget that you
    cannot "wipe the world clean of their type" without wiping it of
      yourself because you become exactly like that you abhor in
    such a campaign. Without a clear and present real, not
    hypothesized, danger the US IS the aggressor if it attacks.

    <smirk> The world could use more real pacifists who think of
    every possible solution and actually manage to practice some
    real compassion rather than excusing violence as being "for the
    good of the Iraqi people".

    If the world survives you can come visit me in the next room any
    time you like. We can compare delusions of hope, peace and
    global prosperity and well-being. We can get really
    out-of-our-minds crazy and talk about a glorious future where
    humans transcended their slightly evolved monkey state and
    prospered beyond any decent person's dreams.
