“On the drive home, my ten-year-old son asked me this question: ‘Dad, why don’t we just nuke North Korea off the face of the earth, so we don’t have to worry about this anymore.’
I breathed deep and posed him another question. ‘Are there children in North Korea?’
‘Yes.’
‘Are they as precious as you?’
‘I don’t know”
‘Of course they are. Are there fathers in North Korea?’
‘Yes.’
‘Aree their lives as precious as your father’s?’ He didn’t answer. So I concluded, ‘It is better to suffer injustice than to inflict it.’”
You are a good father and a wise dad.
Correct answer: “It’s nothing to do with North Korea”.
... As I keep saying!
Moral equivalence: which means that a demonic nut with millions of bostage/slaves can do whatever he damn well pleases until WWIII.
To the author:
Were their children in Hiroshima? In Nagasaki?
Was it worth 130,000 deaths to save 7 million others?
The author apparently ignored that his son didn’t answer that last question. A child would normally think his parent is more precious/important than someone else’s.
Tis more blessed to give than receive.
"Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
Go Trump!
So you intend to take the first strike
Gee Dad, that really really doesnt answer my question of why we are just sitting around waiting for incoming
when they guys who tell us to keep talking all have escape plans to survival bunkers
How about “It is better to eliminate injustice and tyranny that to let it live, fester and spread to the rest of mankind.”
That would be a true act of justice. Letting the suffering go on is truly an injustice of the worst kind.
As a member of a Holocaust wiped out European side of the family, I would rather have had American and British bombers destroy Auschwitz than to let Mengele do his experiments on children, or the SS gas them in the chambers.
Liberals are very liberal at sacrificing other peoples’ lives for their own sanctimonious vain feelings.
