2004: When Iggy was young and foolish, Iggy was young and foolish

Antiwar.com reminds us of this charming quote from Michael Ignatieff in 2004:

To defeat evil, we may have to traffic in evils: indefinite detention of suspects, coercive interrogations, targeted assassinations, even pre-emptive war.


Or as Trotsky put it,

As for us, we were never concerned with the Kantian-priestly and vegetarian-Quaker prattle about the 'sacredness of human life.'


Vegetarians, Kantians, priests and Quakers are advised to vote for Rae or Dion.
