Magog: Unguarded Swarming Around... cats living with dogs... total chaos.
Monday, April 28, 2003 I caught a snippet of Scott Ritter defending George Galloway on Friday. Now, I am not surprised that Ritter defended Galloway, as they had been peas in a pod in obstructing the US and Britain's attempts to bring down Hussein; however, I was particularly intrigued by Ritter's redirection in placing blame. Ritter said (and I'm paraphrasing, because I cannot find a documented account of his rant): "Even if Galloway accepted money, it does not obviate the need to hold the US accountable for the 1.5 million Iraqi deaths brought on by sanctions." Got that? It is perfectly ok for a British MP to accept bribes from a foreign government to assist in obstructing his own country's foreign policy because. . .well, because the UN (that's UN, Scott, not US) sanctions were harmful to Iraqis. This is a startling example of moral relativism. And this is from a fellow who hid his firsthand knowledge of the Ba'athist children's prison on the basis that it may tend to make Saddam look bad and help the cause of war. There must be a special place in hell for people like Ritter. posted by the wolf | 9:36 AM on this		links Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Men Cold Fury Fraters Libertas Hugh Hewitt INDC Journal Little Green Footballs Marathon Pundit Protein Wisdom Right Wing News Spoons The Fat Guy Udolpho Wizbang Supersonic Scientists Andrew Sullivan Chicago Boyz Colby Cosh Megan McArdle Michelle Malkin Power Line The Command Post Walter Williams Children Of The West California Patriot Curmudgeonly & Skeptical Frontpagemag Moxie Oh, That Liberal Media Vetterworld Knowledge Is Power Vodkapundit Willow Farm Bitch Girls Rachel Lucas Small Dead Animals Susanna Cornett Pied Pipers Instapundit James Lileks Mark Steyn The American Spectator The Corner The Volokh Conspiracy The Weekly Standard The Western Standard contact info oh, just post a comment search WWW Search Magog Search archives
