Alina Stefanescu breaks it down for the interventionists and nation-builders:
I do not condemn all war—sometimes, albeit rarely, war is necessary. I just condemn the wars that are waged continuously for circumspect reasons—the only wars of “liberation” are the ones that you fight on your own. If we truly internalized human rights and individualism, it would be very, very difficult for us to accept even the death of one innocent civilian in Iraq. There are wars worth waging, and battles worth fighting, where the costs are not so high, where the results are not measured in body counts. The best wars are in our heads, between ideas, and in our hearts, between appropriate solutions to the hauntings of the head.
