I never said Zarqawi was a good man who did good deeds. I never suggested he was anything other than our enemy. I just questioned the moral authority of our nation to play god, particularly when she is a morbid and bloodthirsty deity.
As for your biblical references, they fly right over my head. I would like to read this Book you reference, but it is unspeakably long and I am still struggling to get though Infinite Jest.
In the 70s, the radio sent me words of wisdom that I shall never forget. Thunder only happens when it's raining.
Think about it.

I understand what you're trying to say. YOu're saying if we kill because we deem someone "bad" are we not in danger of becoming something others see as "bad." That is a valid concern, albeit you articulated it poorly.
I recommend we kill the bad people quickly and ruthlessly and completely. Then, if some wisenheimer says "is the US bad?" we can say "compare us to people everyone agrees are bad" but they won't be able to because all the bad people (besides us) will be gone, so there will be no point of comparision.
does that help?
