Are they volunteering to help NGOs administer Kosovo? There's also reports that the situation in Haiti is breaking down. Where are those who supported nation-building? Are they now joining either the military or the NGOs or the UN to help these places out? Odd, how it would have been outrageous in the 1990s to suggest that those who supported nation-building (by the US military, no less) should join up, yet those self-same "self-less" sorts are now busily cawing "Chickenhawk!

How many more people have to die until we get... More unilateral warfare
