What it means when the US goes to war

[Watcher In The Middle]

Interesting diatribe.....

When I read stuff like this, I always wonder if the writer holds the same opinion of the US intervention in Kosovo (now, of course, that was courtesy of an administration from a different political viewpoint), or Haiti, or even let's say a potential military intervention in Darfur.

Of course, I'm sure Mr. Hedges would hold to his same principles no matter the environment, be it geographic, military, or political.

Yeah.

In fact, would Mr. Hedges also prefer that our humanitarian efforts by our military in response to recent natural disasters like a Tsunami should be avoided, because members of the military could overreact in creating a security environment resulting from such an "atrocity producing situation" (a natural atrocity, but still an "atrocity")?
