The justification for military actions in Kosovo, Sierra Leone, or, if it were to happen, Darfur, is not that the situations there are a
"threat to our homeland". But that's the justification that was given for getting into Iraq and, despite clumsy attempts to rationalize it as (i) bringing democracy to Iraqis or (ii) alleviating their suffering under the brutal regime of Saddam, the fact is that the underlying justification that the supporters of this war continue to give is that it is important for our national security. Well, I for one think the war is the threat to our national security. But if I thought our nation truly was at risk, I'd consider joining the military or otherwise directly contributing to the effort. But chickenshithawks like Sarah want the war plus no sacrifice.
