    There's nothing humanitarian about war. The world community has an obligation to respond when it can come to an agreement, but if it can't, it can't.
Simple-minded, silly and unpractical. Smacks of John Stuart Mill.

I'm confused as to how Obama asking Congress for permission about missile strikes and possible armament becomes "we're going to war again" in the minds of people like Kucinich. Is the sole argument, "Look at what happened in Iraq"? I don't know.
