What do you think is too serious to joke around about?
The Iraq War. We know from the news that 4,000 American military lives have been wasted. What we don't know are the number of civilian lives - Iraqi and foreign - which have been squandered to suit the ideology of a tiny political elite inside American politics. It's not a joke. It's not something to respond to questions about by saying "So??". The entire scenario is a crime. Invasion was always illegal. Those who planned and perpetrated this gross display of human pride and ineptitude need to be held to account. Not just by history, but by the present. In the here-and-now. They need to be made to pay.
