"Would British mothers accept their sons being exposed to such brutality?"
Brutal indeed! The latest on the war that has been generously described by one military historian as "as the most foolish war of the last 2,014 years":
Like the recent scandal surrounding the video showing UK soldiers beating innocent Iraqi teens is something new?!!
Abu Ghraib. (4/30/04)
US Military Desecrates bodies of Afghans. (10/21/05)
"Trophy Video" of civilian shootings by contractors emerges. (11/27/05)
The US is holding children as young as 8 years of age who have been captured in Afghanistan and Iraq in prison camps as POW's. (12/17/05)
This ain't just about blasphemous cartoons in Denmark, people (although that defintiely doesn't help).
No wonder even Republicans like Senator Chuck Hagel are more and more comfortable coming out and saying the United States is “In More Trouble Today Than We’ve Ever Been” In Iraq.
And CNN's Christiane Amanpour says: "Iraq is a disaster." Hey, who am I to argue?
Semi-related:
- A movie that looks like it's worth going to watch and suppport: Why We Fight.
- What I just started watching on DVD tonight and it's actually pretty good so far: Lord of War.
