Well thats the old irony people are.
For example here in germany the anti nuclear energy movement is big. Probably the biggest on the whole earth.
And after the tsunami in japan they gained momentum. Its possible that in a few years germany may be nuclear energy free. But it wont be a better world. Nuclear energy still is important in germany and so it would result in energy shortages which can not be filled with renewable energy.
So germany will buy energy from its neighbours who have nuclear energy.
Which will result in a higher price for energy. And thats were many people will realise that everything has consequences.
Now i may be against certain things while in the future these things may safe me.
Well i'm not necessarily against usage of nuclear energy in general, rather just using it in warfare as a weapon. I'm glad to hear though that this happening in your country, as from my prospective this is a good thing.
Oh yes you are.
Trust me, i'm not. If this was some general topic, i wouldn't be trying to argue against your 'moral compass'. However, i'm approaching this from the moral point because the elimination of it or making it less important seems to me as the main problem. So its aimed as a practical approach to point out a problem, not just trying to push my own morals or moral arguments on you in general.
I dont see all arabs as my enemies.
I dont see all palestinians as my enemies.
I dont see all muslims as my enemies. For example until a certain age i had many muslima as good friends. Lets just say that shifted and ironically iam still on good terms with their parents or grandparents while their children perhaps watch too much Al Manar all day.
Well, i'm sad that this is the case. I didn't mean to say though that you necessarily view all those groups as enemies. But you saying that you don't have to choose between your own people and your enemies as you put it, led to me naturally to put it like i did.
Any human will see the death of a family member as more severe as a death of a person they dont know. Thats all iam trying to say.
And i completely agree.
What i am trying to say on the other hand, is that these feelings don't make either outcome a more or less evil than the other. Evil is evil, no matter who it is done to. Therefore, it can never be justified to kill an entire population of people knowingly including the innocent for whatever reason.
