    Does it? So it is acceptable to die and/or allow others to die (eg Syria) because of one principle, rather than to kill and survive and/or save others in the pursuit of another (eg Kosovo)?

    I do not believe I would enjoy the feeling of self loathing and shame that would accompany such uncompromising pacifism.
    Political correctness: a doctrine which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd from the clean end.

    She said YES I WILL ... !!! I said ... so much for being a pacifist ...

    Some things ARE worth fighting for. Just ... Some things just ain't worth the bother ...

    It has been acceptable to have people dying in their millions in Africa long before Syria kicked off. You said what about principle? There's no principle at work here, just a bunch of fucktards warring because they need a war. What's so special about Afghanistan? The Taliban? That huge US trained threat to freedom? Pulease.
    I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!

    Then you must feel sick to the core that NZ is going to cut and run early next year. Right?

    No. What I was trying to say but didn't, was that it needs to be a compromise. Either extreme isn't healthy.

    Dear talli-tubbies,
    Fuck off back to your caves and shag your goats some more. Your leadership is dead and dying, your middle-management structure is already dead.

    Don't run, as you'll only die tired.
    By the way, all the virgins you have been promised are uglier than your sisters and smell worse than fresh goatshit.

    Thanks Willy. Saw this the other day on Youtube. As a member of the green wearing Fraternity I feel their pain. 2/1 Bn must be hurting really bad now.
