Colman McCarthy at the Washington Post:
To oppose ROTC, as I have since my college days in the 1960s, when my school enticed too many of my classmates into joining, is not to be anti-soldier. I admire those who join armies, whether America’s or the Taliban’s: for their discipline, for their loyalty to their buddies and to their principles, for their sacrifices to be away from home.
So there’s no difference between serving in the US military and the Taliban? Between being a citizen-soldier for a democratic republic under the rule of law and a hired gun of a tyrannical movement that throws acid in girls’ faces for trying to learn to read? Really? Seriously??
God, I pity anyone in this morally bankrupt moron’s classes.

Colman McCarthy may be on to something here ..
Let’s end militarism and militancy in Taliban schools.
But what do you expect from the morally bankrupt? This is all part of the indoctrination process. I hope that most of the kids in his class are partying all night and not listening to his drivel.
At least you didn’t say “brain dead liberal” moral equivalence. That would have been redundant.
And I’ll bet he thinks the rapos in the UN units in Africa are just as good, too.
My gosh, what a moral cesspool that creep has for a brain!
This kind of thinking is not as new as one might think. During the run-up to WWII, there were quite a few American ministers, as well as other types of people, engaging in moral-equivalence arguments. link
What a moron! Sounds like Chris Matthews moral equivalence of the Iraqi “insurgency” to American revolutionaries …

Peace studies? Is that where the hippies learn to build bombs, set fires and vote for Democrats? Now I know why my campus book store carries a full line of Birkenstocks, Che, Castro, Marx, and Stalin t-shirts. The book section is somewhat limited though, with row after row of little red books. :)>-
