Meh, more war justification. "But the other kids are doing it too" does not a morally authoritative position make.

If that's what you got from what I said, then I didn't explain myself well enough.

Your replies to other comments indicate, however, that you're more likely to take the inflammatory interpretation. Which I find most ironic given the message you seem to be trying to convey.

The "cast the first stone" rhetoric is a clue that you're not really convincible regarding war and its machinations.

There are plenty of countries who refuse to participate in the wanton destruction of the Middle East and illegal, criminal, unrestrained warfare. America and its allies are, alas, far too addicted to the economies of such to change any time soon. Not soon enough, anyway.
