      The bloodiest wars are caused by both sides being right.

          You kept posting what you think is right and lo and behold you got a 5 vote at last. :) I had to scratch my eyes several times to confirm what I was seeing was really true.

                Agree with Pete; probably best for SB in the future but it's encouraging to see what is happening. I just wish people did not have to get hurt in the process.

                    I think you are confused. Think of a slave revolt. The captured slaves want to be free, but their master wont let them. You know which side is in the right, doesn't really matter what they think on either side, because there is only one right side.

                        They would, because they benefit from it. Goldman Saches doesn't take hundreds of billions of taxpayers dollars because they believe its the right thing to do, they do it because its easy money. A dictator doesn't cull protesters of tyranny because he believes its morally right, he does it to keep or strengthen his power. A psychopath doesn't chain down his victims because he thinks its the right thing to do, he does it because it gets him off.

                            Well, what I mean is that there is this thing called universal morality. Things that are known to be undebatable and undeniably right or wrong.

                                  No different than anyone else. In fact it's that kind of thinking that leads to the type of situations you're complaining about.

                                      You sound like a one of those suicide bombers videos - do you expect virgins with that?

                                      Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.
