Is that Blood on our Hands? 

Is that Blood on our Hands?

With so many such stories popping up lately, it's hard to know where to start, so let's just start with these two, which showed up today:

From the New York Times (sorry, you'll have to register if you already haven't), we find this story describing the Reagan Administration's complicity in some of the most heinous of Saddam's atrocities, with special attention paid to Ole Rummy's role.

From Alternet we get Noam Chomsky's take on the moral flexibility of our policy makers, notably, in this case, Paul Wolfowitz.

Wasn't that long ago, was it, that the Republicans were decrying the "moral relativism" of the Democrats? When it comes to such relativism, I'd much rather the result be an illicit affair with a younger woman than complicity in crimes against humanity. But then, that's just me.
