i said wars CAN be good i didnt say they didnt come without a price and that they would always be good

the Sudan war is the worst kind - genocide and nothing good ever comes down that road

Afganistan and Iraq DID free the people from tyranny and while we have made a total hash up of the peace the war was well thought out and operated - we gave them a chance to chose their leaders and live free... im starting to wonder if thats what they wanted but it is a noble idea

I think the word enlightened is better for referring to periods and geopgrahical locations where a decent behavior is exhibited by the populace and leaders because the people at large have realized that evilness only results in worthless short term gains and undermined security at best.
yes that is a far better term
