Re Ed001 saying Bush was guilty etc etc for
providing the means for warmongering...If
we take that to its logical conclusion then
every business which produces armaments
AND their employees are equally guilty. I am
not sure that you can manufacture guns/rockets/explosives etc which can only be
used for defence?
Puzzled {Ed001's Note - possibly you could say that, but there is a bit of a difference from being a lowly worker who needs to work to feed his/her family to being President of the most powerful nation on earth with the power to make decisions that affect us all.}
Put it this way America gave Osama Bin Laden guns years ago because he was fighting people in his own country, and when Osama released a terrorist video the America government flew all of Bin ladens family out of America. All leaders are guilty of Warmongering in one way or another we just hear what the government wants us to hear

It is true that a 'lowly worker' is different in that he does not instigate the use of the arms he manufactures however without those arms the use thereof could not be instigated.
Also Ed001 I notice that your emphasis seems to be on Bush - no word on Clinton?
Puzzled {Ed001's Note - again, just as bad, if not worse because he tried to pretend to be better.}
