I am sure Le Chi Quang is delighted that the Peace Movement stopped war in his country. He is a 32 year-old Vietnamese man who got sentenced to four years in prison for "propaganda against the Socialist Republic of Vietnam." Who cares about freedom of expression when you can have peace? Protesting against this sentence, the organization "Reporters without Borders" wrote to Vietnam's Justice Minister: "Even if your government persists in abusing the basic rights of its citizens, we appeal to you to free Le Chi Quang because he is seriously ill." But at least they have peace now in Vietnam. The group also said that Quang was in a very weak state with a swollen face. He has kidney problems that the prison officials are refusing to treat. Good thing they have peace though in Vietnam. The government says Quang was "caught red-handed" while "illegally uploading the information" to the Internet. What would the situation be like if they didn't have peace though? The Hanoi government accuses Quang of posting articles that "distort the situation in Vietnam, slandering the Vietnam Communist Party, the state of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and undermining the national and religious unity." Fortunately, the people of Vietnam now can live in peace. That must be the reason for the exodus of boat people from Vietnam. They probably wanted to convey their personal thanks to the Peace Movement for bringing Peace to Vietnam. It's so good to live in peace, you know.

I am sure the Iraqi people are very worried their peace may soon end. Thankfully the Peace Movement is out in force again to help Saddam Hussein maintain the Peace, thereby helping the Iraqi people to achieve the same kinds of benefits their intervention in Vietnam has brought.

Pacifism is not some muddle-headed, harmless pastime. Pacifism aids and abets those who want to destroy us. Pacifism is not merely wrong, it's morally repugnant. Pacifism is evil.
