[Peace-discuss] Bad craziness in DC

[Ricky Baldwin]

OK, this is really thoroughly insane now.  It's quite a lot like what's 
called "magical thinking" in Hitler's Willing Executioners.  By Cheney's 
logic, every country should just wipe out every other country now: they all 
have the POTENTIAL to develop weapons of mass destruction.  But they 
certainly should first all team up and obliterate the USA, as we are the 
only ones who have ever actually USED nuclear weapons (both times against 
virtually undefended civilian targets, no less) AND we are by far the most 
belligerent nation on earth AND we have by far the largest stockpiles of 
various weapons of mass destruction.  We literally make Saddam look like a 
penny-ante player.
