Subject: With that in mind...

With the previous statements in mind, it's not about the choice between Good and Evil, but between the lesser harmful of two evils.

Politics are the reign of Satan (cf. Mt4:8.9) and the question is just how much influence we give to Satan in these politics.
No one would dare to doubt that Saddam's reign of terror has brought more misery on the Iraqui population than the U.S. surveillance, but far is it from bringing things into a "black-white" realm of saying "If Saddam was evil, then Bush's administration must be good".

Couldn't we just agree that given the world situation as is, Bush's administration is not the problem #1, but actually helps solve a number of things that are problematic?

However, the ends do not justify the means - that's one of the lessons UBF should have taught us.
