Re: A Little Perspective in Iraq
Yeah, I saw that right when I signed onto the net...
Above all, it reminded me how futile revenge-for-revenge is. That is, if the video is legit and not an act to anger the US, then the terrorist "heroics" are just foolish fuel for the cycle. I know, it happens in just about every conflict... and I'm not telling anybody anything that isn't clearly obvious. But, it's the first thing that jumped into my mind. Media posts pictures... terrorists kill civilians... terrorist leaders get bombed... terrorists make the leaders martyrs and raid cities... etc.
But, that beheading better damn well get as much, or more attention than pictures of humiliation and abuse.
