Activism.
I'd still like to think that there is a real chance of Tony Blair being convicted of mass murder and dying in jail. And of George Bush and John Howard not daring to set foot in Europe again.
This was all preventable: it's quite unlikely that Al Gore would have started it, or that John Kerry would have allowed it to continue. Bush's ruthlessness, and the lack of value he placed on human life, was apparent at least a decade before he was president.
- Inconel 10y agoI share your overall dissatisfaction with the USA's disastrous foreign interventions, and while I agree that Gore probably wouldn't have invaded Iraq, I'm quite certain he would have invaded Afghanistan. And I see no reason to believe Kerry would have taken a much different path than Obama has. Speaking of whom, is there a reason he was left out of your critique? He seems pretty fond of both mass surveillance and drones.
