[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4228498, member: 63706"] You can certainly make that argument. But the closest you will ever come to a moral war is one that is fought in self-defense. If all you care about is the bottom line, and not the people who put their lives on the line to protect that bottom line, you should still believe that we shouldn't intervene in every conflict around the world. Go put yourself in a foxhole in some third-world country with mortar rounds going off all around and then tell me how much you care about the price of a gallon of gas. The fact that people get messed up even in unambiguous moral situations just goes to show that we aren't immoral animals, and that putting people in kill or be killed situations is not something that should just be done for the political gains of a few.
