that is a interesting statement. While it is a good point, I don't know that I agree with it. I just don't know. What if Hitler had not invaded any countries and had just rounded up all the jews and and only those who were in Germany and had decided to murder them. How far do we let a goverment go with its own people? It is right to sit by and do nothing while inocents are murdered and you have the power to stop it? But what Bossk said is true, if we say we have the right to judge another countries government, would we also be saying that they have to right to judge us and maybe use their own criteria? Whose to say that the criteria we would judge by would be superior to the criteria used by a another country to judge us? I just don't know.
