Which law of nature, or of nature's God, does O'Neill think the invasion of Iraq violates?

No to be a wise ass...but since you asked...how about, "Thou shalt not kill'?

Actually, a more accurate translation would be "Thou shall not commit murder."

There is a huge difference between murder and killing.

See Post #62 and don't quote Scripture if you don't know what you're talking about.

Huh? That is a command given to individuals (not nations). Try using the Old Testament to find a command forbidding war for just reasons (seeing that Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Gideon, Jephthah, David, et al -- godly men all -- each led successful military campaigns with divine approval). (By the way, Moses was the guy who "delivered" the thou shalt not kill commandment, too.)
