Which war was "moral"?
If you don't think the OSS or the FBI used coercive interrogation
methods you have been watching too many movies.

'Moral high ground' is a term used by liberals who disagree that a
threat may exist or should be defeated.


Wrong as usual. Moral high ground is a synonym right-wing dip****s like
you use to justify your feelings of 'my country, right or wrong." It's
the simplethink that people like you use to justify the slaughter of a
million plus SE Asians and 100,000+ Iraqis and Afghanis in pursuit of a
right-wing war against the wrong countries.



I thought it was a left wing war. LBJ was a Democrat.

As was Kennedy of course. Classic case of selective forgetfulness on
Harry's part, not to mention some revisionist history.



That there were and are right-wing dip****s who believe in my country
right or wrong has nothing to do with Kennedy, who, btw, was hardly a

Kennedy increased our involvement from a couple hundred covert guys to
thousands in uniform, LBJ took it to a half a million.
Nixon was the one who got us out and Ford closed the door.

Nixon got us out after raising the stakes on bombing but finally paid
attention to the protestors and his impending political demise
(Watergate, remember?) and started the process of really ending the war,
none of which has anything to do with my comment about right-wingers who
are the "my country, right or wrong" dip****s.

No reason to blame the Republicans. The Democrats were very much in

I must say, your "reads" on history are amusing, including your

which the U.S. was directly involved were somehow the fault of
presidents of the Democratic Party. Perhaps that sort of thinking is the
result of reading a book or two without the discipline imposed by formal
instruction, reading lists, and intensive discussion one might find in
decent, college-level, liberal arts courses, eh? :)

I recall a college-level class in German in which someone posited that
the reason Germany had been involved in so many horrific wars, including
WWII, had *only* to do with that nation's desire to extend its geography
to "protect" German nationals in other countries, and to create a buffer
for the homeland. Well, of course, that was hogwash, and fellow was
hooted in class for the day. I think it might have been the instructor
who said that, actually. He was a German ex-pat, and though he was far
too young to have been involved in WWII, he apparently took some of what
Hitler had "speechified" to heart.

In any event, I enjoy your dissertations...for a while, anyway. :)

As for war planning, the Pentagon (under any president) is constantly
developing "what if" scenarios for virtually any conflict or
contingency.

WWII, had *only* to do with that nation's desire to extend its

to "protect" German nationals in other countries, and to create a

Greg posited that *all* the wars in which we engaged in the 20th Century
were entered when Democratic presidents were in office. My counterposit
was that Greg was incorrect, and I offered an example.

The cause of that first Gulf War is not relevant to either Greg's claim

correct.

Retrospective analysis of complex actions like wars usually requires
looking beyond simple reasons. Trying to attribute them to the party of
the party in the White House is simple minded.

Actually, Greg is correct. Technically Korea, Vietnam, "Operation
Desert Storm " (and all others since WWII) were not "declared wars".
Only two wars declared by Congress in the 20th Century have occurred;
WWI under a Democrat (Wilson) and WWII under a Democrat (Roosevelt).

All in all, Congress has declared war 11 times.

Reagan planned the Gulf War, 3 years before Saddam invaded Kuwait?
Do tell.
You guys really have to get your story straight. I have no problem
finding plenty of articles from liberals complaining that the Reagan
administration was too friendly to Saddam. That was a move started by
the Carter administration and by Zbigniew Brzezinski in particular.

How many Americans died in the first gulf war?

Are you really going to compare that to Vietnam or Korea, both
unnecessary wars and we lost both.

Oh, wait, you libertarians believe Reagan and Bush were

Yes we do believe there was very little difference between GHWB and
the democrats.


Actually, Korea is not lost. Is still going on. Still meetings in

Actually the Korean War was a draw and since only an armistice was signed the state of war still exists.

Well, of course, because in everything important, Kosovo, Haiti, and
Somalia, and the first Gulf War are all equivalents in the non-critical
loonytarian mind.

You are the one trying to equate a 100 hour war in Kuwait with a 10
year war in Vietnam and a war in Korea that is still technically going
on. We are simply in a cease fire.



No I am not. I am simply pointing out the error of a previous comment of
yours, you know, the one in which you claimed that *all* our wars in the
previous century were initiated during the presidencies of Democrats.
And please don't tell me that Jimmy Carter was responsible for that war.


Was your red barn an 'error' that should be pointed out!

WWII, had *only* to do with that nation's desire to extend its geography
to "protect" German nationals in other countries, and to create a buffer
for the homeland. Well, of course, that was hogwash, and fellow was

who said that, actually. He was a German ex-pat, and though he was far
too young to have been involved in WWII, he apparently took some of what
Hitler had "speechified" to heart.

In any event, I enjoy your dissertations...for a while, anyway. :)

You never pointed out anything I said that was not true.



Oh, really? Gosh. Well, then, let's post an example that shoots your
comment about U.S. wars in the 20th Century/Democratic presidents to
hell in a handbasket.

How about...the *first* Gulf War, kinda planned in the Reagan
misadministration and planned for real and executed in the G. H. W. Bush
administration.

How many Americans died in the first gulf war?

What? Are you now claiming that the first gulf war doesn't count as a
war stated under a Republican president because not enough Americans died?

It is the excuse you guys use when anyone wants to bring up Kosovo,
Haiti or Somalia.

Carter is responsible for lots of the present wars! He basically showed we
would do nothing if we were attacked. A year of hostages in our embassy?
Ghengis Khan would have laid waste to Iran. Fact is he did it over his
ambassadors being killed back in the 1200's.

OK you win. If I take all of these little interventions into account
it is 14 to 4 and the 4 include Granada, Panama and the Mexican border
incursion to catch Poncho Villa along with the 100 hour gulf war.

In the D side you have WW1 that we really could have avoided, Vietnam
and Korea that were totally unnecessary WWII that was inevitable.
There were 10 other minor to major involvements from Kosovo and
Bosnia to misadventures like Somalia.


Whatever point you were trying to make as to connections between wars
and who is holding the white house was specious. I don't know much about
the Korean Conflict, but I do agree Vietnam was avoidable.
