It is dang hard to sort meaning out of your post. The first sentence has no verb, and the second reads like it wants a "not" in front of "worth". The last, I think only has a typo, but it's supposedly a conclusion, but based on no statements. In any case none of what you say above—or what I think you're saying—relates to my opinions expressed here.Aardvark154 said:If you (and as you write the larger public) feel that Afghanistan which has real connection as an Al-Qaeda haven with terrorism in Europe and North America is not worth the lives of Canadian Troops. Then how on earth can anyone talk about how Darfur is worth a single Canadian life. And if that is true than is anything other than an attack on Canada proper worth a single Canadian life?
1)Afghanistan has been botched. That's what I have said. You've invented the rest of it.
2)Declaring war on Germany in 1939 I have already cited—did you overlook that? It's an example of justifiably, if belatedly, going to war before any credible threat to Canada proper. There's a rumour we even beat the Brits to it by a coupla hours. Korea's not a terrible example either, and we've lost a fair number on peacekeeping duties. Those lives were most sorely lost, but no cause is higher.
