Hearts and Minds

I saw a British paper refer to this as a “slaughter”. Also read a Pakistani paper that calls out the brutality of the US troops. I wonder how many terrorists this little incident makes? I don’t fault the US troops one bit, they are doing what Bush sent them there to do. Bush is the one creating more terrorists. And when this plays in the Arab press it dosen’t matter if they are insurgents, terrorists, or innocents. They will all be matyrs.

I absolutely love this quote: (Mr. Orwell, Mr. Heller meet the US Military)

Earlier, the US military had said a helicopter destroyed the vehicle "to prevent looting and harm to the Iraqi people", after four US soldiers were wounded in the attack on the Bradley.

“to prevent harm to the Iraqi people”…we blew them up. WOW.
