    -Brimlow talks about the draft and this use of men to promote war. Brimlow himself does not support the concept of supreme emergency. He says, “Let me very clear: even if just war theory is fatally flawed” (Brimlow, 2006, Pg. 69). He talks of the justification of killing and how Walzer speaks of the sacrifice of the innocent being ok in supreme emergency. This is almost a contradiction to what most just war theorists believe in. “This is of crucial importance, because even just war theorist deny that it is ever justifiable to kill the innocent directly and intentionally” (Brimlow, 2006, pg. 69). It seems that he uses this form of contradiction to show how he critiques. Brimlow talks about several events but a particularly problematic event…

    In the recorded conversations that Richard Nixon, the 37th President of the United States, had with his White House aides, he reveals his motivations and his assumptions about the American public: “Everybody says we’ve got to protect this one and that one and the other one. The main thing we’ve got to protect is the Presidency”. He felt that the presidency granted him immunity to the law. Under his Presidency, an air of distrust of government gradually grew amongst US citizens. He led a criminal presidency yet was never indicted or prosecuted. If he were not President of the United States, he would have faced greater consequences for his actions. In this light, perhaps he was right when he claimed, in his 1977 interview with David Frost, “When…
