They Know They are Doing Wrong

There has been some debate in anti-war circles about the motives of the administration. Are they just idiots who do not understand human nature, the horrors of war or the consequences of their actions? Maybe they know full well what they are doing but consider the war profits worth the price that the American and Iraqi people are paying.

Some recent under the table activity might help us decide. They show shame! The website of the Kansas City architectural firm, Berger Devine Yaeger showed artist sketches of the proposed Baghdad embassy that they are designing. When it started getting noticed and linked to in anti-war websites, where it was referred to as the The Colossus of Baghdad, the Pentagon got upset. They did not want the nice pretty details made public. The excuse was that it might give terrorists information, but there was insufficient detail for that. The real reason could only be shame.

The firm's website was scrubbed and the Google cache of disappeared web sites was also scrubbed. Of course, in today's world, that is not nearly good enough. Anyone, anywhere in the world might well have saved copies and, in fact, they did. Take a look at what your tax dollars are building in a city where the locals still have no reliable public utilities four years after our government's illegal invasion.

I believe that this proves that the administration and the Neo-conservatives behind them know full well that they are doing wrong and they are a group of evil people, working toward their own riches and power. We, as a nation, have an obligation to renounce them and their actions up to the point of criminal action. We owe the world nothing less to remove the stain on our honor.
