If someone says the moon is made of Swiss cheese, or they have contact with aliens, trying to argue with them is futile. So it is trying to argue against this Lewis guy and his sicko article.

You can ask, why was it OK when Clinton bombed Iraq for noncompliance of UN resolutions (though only during his impeachment trial), that he made war against Somalia, Bosnia and Hatie without UN approval, not because these countries attacked us but because we thought their people deserved a better government:?

You can ask why it was OK for France, in the middle of it's "anti-war" crusade, to wage war against the Ivory Coast, which posed no threat to France.

You can point out that Iraq attacked Iran, invaded Kuwait then started towards Saudi Arabia before we stopped them so how can you maintain Iraq's weapons are only for defense?

You can say people like you who speak out against their leaders are the ones being tortured or killed, and if you want more liberals running around free to speak their minds, you should support the war against terrorism and the fascist states who sponsor it.

Well, you get the idea. It doesn't matter what you say to these idiots, they have some psychological need to live their life in rebelious -teenager mode or terrible-twos mode, and facts and reason are not going to get in the way.
