It is America (or Israel) at war, not just any war, that disturbs the Left. That is why there have been few demonstrations, and none of any size, against the mass murder of Sudanβs blacks; the genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, or Congo; Chinaβs crushing of Tibet; or Saddam Husseinβs wars against Iran, Kuwait, and Iraqβs own Kurds. Though there are always admirable individual exceptions, the Left has not been nearly as vocal about these large scale atrocities as it is about Americaβs wars. One additional reason is that, in general, atrocities committed by non-whites rarely interest the Leftβand therefore βworld opinion,β which is essentially the same thing as Leftist opinion.
