18. Righteous, NOT
If every nation decides it can invade other nations as a preventative measure based on guesses and personal animosities, what will the world become?

It is the peak of arrogance to look at the mess in Iraq and call America's behavior there "righteous." Iraq didn't attack us on 9/11, and Iraq was a secular state, not an Islamic theocracy.

Not to mention the carnage and degradation we've foisted on the innocent people of Iraq, now and into the foreseeable future. All for a naive dream of democratic (read: capitalist) imperialism.
