When Refusing to Kill Has a Higher Sentence Than Murder →
by Army Col. Ann Wright (ret.)
In the five and one-half years of the US occupation of Iraq, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians have been killed by US military personnel at checkpoints, during convoy movements and during operations to find the “enemy.” In the half-decade of US military presence in Iraq, a very small number of US military personnel and an even smaller number of CIA and contractors have been charged with manslaughter or murder in these deaths.

Richard Dawkins on militant atheism 12 September 2008

This talk by Dawkins at TED Talks was made in 2002, fours years before his book, The God Delusion, came out in 2006, and it provides a wonderful distillation of the book’s content.
His brilliance, insight, and intellectual militance on this important theme are inspiring. And he is as funny as hell.
