Andrew Coyne, editor of Maclean’s Magazine,says that the endless Afghan occupation is justified to prevent Afghanistan from attacking Canada. By that logic, he would justify invading Mexico to prevent drug lords there from exporting drugs to Canada. This is nonsense. Afghanistan did not attack on 9/11. Bush alleges bin Laden and a group of Saudis did it, (though it seems to me the evidence points to it being mostly an inside job). By Canada’s UN Charter treaty, (which trumps even Canada’s constitution) paranoia is not justification. Everyone involved has committed a capital war crime. I wonder how much Coyne was paid to say that crap. Who paid him is obvious. Only a very few people have benefited from the war.
