Third westerner beheaded by Isis.........

[Anomalocaris]

So according to Maher, we shouldn't do anything to stop the ISIS genocide. I guess we over-reacted to the holocaust too. Westerner's are NOT the only people being murdered! Sometimes he is brilliant, other times he is such an idiot.

It is not a moral position to say we are not the worlds policeman, anytime you don't help those in need when you have the ability, you are an ass. What we need to do is get away from respecting peoples' delusions and imaginary friends like it it some moral good when in fact that respect is a moral evil.

Have you noticed those who prizes simplistic solutions involving brute military power and wish thinking over insightful solution involving forethought, patience, and understandings of politics and motivations of all involved will always mention holocaust whenever their approach is challenged? It's almost as if holocaust is some sort of mentra or talisman that can bless any foreign policy blunder involving the immediate use of American tax dollars for ammunition.

I wonder what the victims of holocaust might think of the fact that their plight would be milked by 4th rate cranks, 3nd rate policy hacks and 2nd rate propagandist for centuries after their tragedy has ended.

I think one is right 98% of the time if one dismiss out of hand any contemporary foreign policy advocacy involving the word holocaust as a shabby justification for an ill thought out and destructive approach that won't end well.
