ImagineAll Wrote:I'm going to flip flop a little bit here on what I said before, but realize I'm merely asking a question (not just to you, but everyone else as well). What makes an American life worth more than an Israeli or a Palestinian life? If we have the capacity and the means to aid in the situation are we not under a moral obligation to intercede? Does the buck stop at only providing aid to our own citizens? As much as I am opposed to the idea of us policing every little issue in the world, are we also just expected to sit idle while thousands upon thousands of innocents are killed?
Food for thought.
I am going to skip the moral and philosophical questions, and go straight to the practical:
Suppose you are willing to risk American lives in order to put a stop to the Arab-Israeli conflict in general, and the current operation in particular. How would you go about it?
