Journalist Glenn Greenwald Speech on "Humanitarian" Wars...
 Part of channel(s): Iraq (current event)

Greenwald is that increasingly rare commodity in the US, a true journalist. I don't agree with him on a lot of things, but he is definitely correct here in debunking the hogwash about "humanitarian" wars. Nobody goes to war for humanitarian reasons. There may be an unplanned byproduct of humanitarianism, but it is never the objective. The objective of war is always the acquisition of land and resources or the defense thereof. That's it.
