AN ANTI-WAR ARGUMENT I CAN SUPPORT ENTIRELY: Or, at least, how one might be phrased:
"I'm angry at Bush, Rumsfeld and company for their mistakes and failures, and especially for allowing or creating the atmosphere that led to the Abu Ghraib horrors. But damn it, I don't want to let these people down."
In other words, maybe the whole thing was a mistake, and shouldn't've happened, but that means we should only redouble our efforts to get the best possible result.
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
-The Dutch Ten Commandments to Foil the Nazis
