Great, Strangler.

I'm not dropping into an anyone is evil frame of mind. Can't someone be pissed off about people dying and not have a political agenda?

And I'm sorry, you were so right! The big picture! This has been the most poorly operated military operation I have seen in my entire life. Are you people aware that Bush declared that the mission was accomplised just a littel overt a year ago? Yet people are still being killed. Civilians might I add.

Go ahead and think of your army as righteous for what they are doing. But most people think of them as the new crusaders and that's not a good thing. What the army is doing would be a lot more righteous if they weren't killing so many ****ing innocent people.

And most people here obviously don't care anything for the lives of Iraqis because when a story about families being killed in a wedding bombing is posted they laugh about it and support they're troops doing things like this.

This is just plain ****ed up. Right now I don't give a damn abotu politics. I care about the fact that the Iraqi people have been dehumanized to you. You don't care that they're dying.

BTW, did you read the whole article? About the video tapes of the wedding? Did you or did you decide to pretend you didn't when you said they were probably terrorists?

Do you know how sore you'd be about things like this if it were your country being invaded? Think about that. What if it were you? You know what you'd do when it was over? Attack back.

That's what Iraq will more than likely do. Your big picture is bull****. This is a war about securing American interests in the Middle East. They have things America wants. That's why they're there. If there was some sort of ruthless dictator killing people in Ethiopia, America wouldn't do anything about it.

Americans need to stop wrapping these tradegies in "good intentions", jesus and the american flag. You accuse reporters of not knowing whats happening there when they're reporting things there. They've been there. You haven't. So don't go thinking you know more than they do. All you have is assumptions. They have first hand experience.
