War still a lie

"With no weapons, no ties, and no truth, the capture of Saddam was merely the most massive and irresponsible police raid in modern times," Derrick Z. Jackson writes in the Boston Globe. "We broke in without a search warrant. Civilian deaths constituted justifiable homicide. America was again above the law. We have taught the next generation that many wrongs equal a right. In arrogance, we boasted, 'We got him!' The shame is that we feel none for how we got him. The capture of this dictator, driven by the poison of lies, turned America itself into a dictator."
