In this morning's Toronto Globe & Mail (22 September 2009), Tom Flanagan raises an important question about the recommendations of MIGS report, Mobilzing the Will to Intervene: Leadership and Action to Prevent Mass Atrocities:
Are democracies limited in their work of preventing mass atrocities in other countries by their need to remain engaged in order to accomplish "regime change" and prevent future violence against the intended victims of the original atrocities?
