You can call it the high moral ground or anything you want. I can see General Custer saying to his troops. "Keep the high moral ground." as their scalps are being cut off. I Just do not know what world some of you people live in. Covert activities. as though there is something obscene about that. Did you ever hear of the French underground? What about the Afghans? What is our response to the vicious violence that is being perpetrated on the Afghan people? Three million refugees. Turn our backs on them? Do you not think that we ought to kind of smuggle a hand grenade in there?
