Bringing 'Sanity' Into The Pacifist Equation
Topics: DhimmitudeDr. Sanity on the killing of Tom Fox by terrorists in Iraq:

As President Bush said of nations: A war has been declared; you are either on one side or another. You are either for doing what is necessary to capture or kill those who control and fund and harbor the terrorists, or you are for not doing this. If you are for not doing this, you are for allowing the terrorists to continue their attacks on America. You are saying, in fact: I believe that it is better to allow more Americans -- perhaps a great many more -- to be murdered than to capture or kill the murderers.That is the pacifists' position, and it is evil.
