It still existed. It is incumbent upon each of us to act morally. But then, we had Nixon and Kissinger holding the reigns. Quite the moral couple there.
The bigger moral quandary is this: why should one kind of atrocity (chemical weapons) be any more immoral than any other kind (carpet bombing, artillery into civilian areas, etc)?
And which despot should we act against? The list is long.
