Yes, but your not considering that there are many regimes in the world that are torturing, and repressing it's people, but America don't get involved with these! Just look at the recent events in Zimbabwe. A supressive dicatorship seizes power, targetting people on racial grounds, and what does our goverment do? It uses a cricket mach to make a petty point! Look at the situation 20 years ago in South Africa, and the torture, and descrimination that people were subjected to at this time. The government didn't step in on this did they? where was the morral ground then! Even look into America's own history, and the Ku Klux Klan. The govenrment did little to stop these people torturing, and murdering people!!!!

There may be a moral arguement for war, but this is NOT the reason it's faught. It's about politics, and public relations. France and Germany won't commit because they want to keep the power balance in Europe cenralised. If they commit with America, then the power shift will move to America, and Britain, and Europe will loose some of it's indipendance.

I personally thought hearing the German leader talking about the war, saying he can't go home and tell his people to prepair for a war he doen't believe in is fair enough. At the end of the day, maybe this is the price of democracy, if a war has to be fought and the public opinion doesn't back it, then the war can't be fought. This is what happened in the second world war, and was one of the reasons why Britain were attempting to avoid war at all costs.

Also, I think there are a fair few people out there that think having Bush with 'his finger on the button' is very scary. Should we therefore rid America of nucleur capabilities, because he's not a stable leader.
