WAKE UP JOE!!Reader comment on item: The Iraq Dilemma Submitted by ken johnston (United States), Mar 1, 2006 at 17:21 When the dominate political party derives legitimacy through the military, declares endless war, claims all other international bodies are unfit, claims the Geneva convention is defunct, uses discredited evidence to invade sovereign nations, sets up black sites for torture, kidnaps people and flies them to torture centers, rejects habeas corpus, allows for endless detentions, bankrupts an economy and ignores public infrastructure in favor of military spending, borrows voraciously from future competitors while outsourcing middle class jobs and sets up an energy policy that is as filthy as its outdated and unsustainable we are in an irresponsible fascist empire. Your answer is to be polite and quiet about it. What does it take to experience some outrage Joe????Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes. Original writing only, please.
