as far as I can tell, for you "utter moral confusion" means disagreeing
with your hawkish viewpoint. If there is "moral confusion" on pen-l, it's
because people actually have disagreements about this issue (though
_everybody_ that I've read denounced the bombings).

you forget the importance of gender and ethic/race issues, not to mention
imperialism, in contemporary leftist thought.

that's exactly the way zombie-fanatics like Osama bin Laden think. Anyone
with doubts is a heretic and thus an enemy. Given what you said elsewhere
in this missive (that I elided) those heretics should be killed.
