Well put, O Ectomorphic One.

My own position on the war? I was against it until 1700 hours PST last
Thursday. PEACEFUL protests, letter-writing, lobbying, etc. are fine until
an actual war begins. Once the shooting starts, dissent tends to lengthen a
conflict, demoralize one's troops, encourage the enemy, and create trouble
on the home front. If standing behind the legitimately elected,
Constitutional government of my country during a huge military commitment
makes me a reactionary, I'll happily accept that label.

And if I was excessive and callous re Rachel Corrie, so be it. I am sick
and tired of spoiled brats with absolutely no common sense, personal
responsibility, or awareness of consequences, using their juvenile idealism
as an excuse to empower murderers and create chaos. I just hope that
incident discourages similarly inclined morons from supporting
homicide-bombing lunatics, or trying to become human speedbumps.
