War

The ugly truth about liberalism and war.
""It’s a nice and convenient myth that liberals are the peacemakers and conservatives the warmongers," wrote the historian Hywel Williams in 2001, "but the imperialism of the liberal way may be more dangerous because of its openended nature – its conviction that it represents a superior form of life [while denying its] selfrighteous fanaticism.""
Liberals are not anti-war. They're just anti-conservative war.
