Debate on Escalation in Syria


By davidswanson - Posted on 05 March 2014

I've never debated anyone who wants limited child abuse or small-scale slavery or carefully circumscribed rape. It's always war. It's always the worst crime, the crime least susceptible to control once begun, and the crime that includes all the others, the crime defined at Nuremberg as the greatest of them all because it includes all the others.  And it's always in blatant violation of the law.

Here's a liberal progressive war advocate employed by a center funded by a war profiteer pushing for "coercive measures" and "threats of force" without ever discussing the actual killing he wants done. I debate him below on The Real News .com.
