"If you want democracy you have to be a player." The decision to let our leaders commit immoral acts is still a decision, and one many of us make daily. Especially when they go around killing other people, if we REALLY didn't want them to do that we would make sure they wouldn't, but alas, they do because we've given them the keys to power to do so. You could then argue "They don't represent us" which would mean we don't have democracy, which I argue to be the case, only because people haven't been playing their position to have it. We willingly participate in a society that gives power to murderers, which says everything about our society. This is what is being told to us while killing our people in retaliation, maybe we should start listening? Or maybe we care so little about our own victims that we want to create more.
