We Can Kill You, and You May Not Object Three years of Happy Halloween TIME It's perfectly okay, and even admirable and required, for us to invade and occupy countries that don't threaten us, murder hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, destroy entire nations, and destabilize the broader Middle East .
Ignorance is never bliss -- and it is especially not bliss when a huge military force is deployed against another nation, one which never seriously threatened us, and when we engage in torture, murder and devastation on a huge and unforgivable scale. Our actions are only made worse when they are supposedly "justified" by the indiscriminate use of terms such as "liberation" and "freedom," when those otherwise laudable and even glorious goals are used in a manner devoid of context and lacking in any specific meaning. It is definitely not okay for anyone who lives in those other countries to object. If they understood what's good for them, they'd shut up and die.
It's sort of American Exceptionalism for Dummies, written by one of the chief dummies.
You know, the blessings Bush signed away yesterday
