One who truly values life doesn't celebrate any loss, or any taking. It really doesn't matter if the man is devil or saint; what matters is my response. I can glory in violence, death, and revenge, and then I've become what I purport to "fight;" or I can grieve honestly for all of the violence, pain, suffering, death, and destruction achieved in Iraq since we invaded, without justifying or judging, thus living the principles I claim. I choose to grieve.
