The Road to Hell

Intentions are one of those pre-9/11 mindset concerns. It used to be that a superpower could bomb civilians back to the stone age and then say "well sorry mate, but we didn't target the civilians" and the world would go "well that's a regretable loss of 300 lives, but I guess they really needed to take out that guy on the 31st floor." Those were the days. Now, you take out one UN Peacekeeper camp or Al Jazeera headquarters and everone starts asking just exactly how the hell that could have happened, like didn't you see the big red cross on top of that truck?

Has it occured to those who order the dropping of the bombs that this whole war on evil thing is not just a tactical military fight? Do they realize that every child they orphan is going to grow up financially strapped with a pretty substantial chip on their shoulder?

Good intentions can be evil,
Both hands can be full of grease.
You know that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
