Those words came from President Bush while he laid a wreath at the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery.
“Young Americans have died in liberating Iraq and Afghanistan. … The loss is terrible. It is borne especially by the families left behind. But in their hurt and in their loneliness, I want these families to know: Your loved ones served in a good and just cause”
What is exactly a good and just cause? And who gives the president of the US the right to declare the fight in Iraq and Afghanistan a good and just cause?
