Causa Belli: Why We Fight

An ongoing survey of the current political, cultural and philosophical debate surrounding the War on Terror. Who are we fighting? Why are we fighting? What are we defending?

Apologies requested

From a friend:

AngelusErrares: Unfortunately
AngelusErrares: I have no idea why I fight since 1/3/05
AngelusErrares: My causa belli is gone

I am very sorry for going AWOL for a month. I apologize to all my three--it's three, right?--readers for betraying their expectations. However, the truth is that right now I am busy with three writing projects, 18 credit hours, 3 different language courses, and applications for internships this summer. So I will have to leave it to greater minds to discuss the philosphical issues of the war. (Tip: read Christopher Blosser's long post on the Iraqi elections in www.ratzingerfanclub.com/justwar)

'Til then, blogging, as they say, will be "light."

A few wimpy classes is enough to keep you out of the blogosphere? I guess we know where true commitment lies. 24 hours and rolling hard.

In absence of our leader due to valid reasons I recommend a few links for your serious consideration.
