Not For Cynics
Posted by Bill A note to cynical leftists and auto-pacifists: whether you believe that altruism was a pivotal factor in the decision to go into Iraq or not, the positive impact of this decision is largely the same, regardless of motivation. Deriding this effort because you have little trust in the political leadership that pulled the trigger on this operation serves your own worldview and ego - not the Iraqi people. After the slideshow, be sure to take a long look at the USAID web site documenting progress in Iraq.

Sincerely, Cynical leftishist Posted by: Robert S. at May 14, 2004 04:11 PM That if you believe in right and wrong, sometimes it's ok to embrace the results of something even if it doesn't tidily serve your worldview ... especially when it stops the slaughter of nearly a million people.
