If al Qaeda had anything close to the nuclear arsenal we have, western civilization would have long ago ceased to exist and all remaining kids would be learning about how Allah destroyed the infidels.
I disagree, Rick. On both levels.

First, the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan don't rise to meet the moral standards of a just war. See Neo-Conned! : Just War Principles: A Condemnation of War in Iraq aqnd Neo-Conned! Again : Hypocrisy, Lawlessness, and the Rape of Iraq document fully that immorality.

Second, and last, your notion about nuclear weapons is just more neo-con talking points regurgitated, and less than I expect from you.
