| 62. This is pure unmitigated BS ..... |
|
I generally support the soldiers ... I dont blame THEM for the policies forced onto them by the neocon assholes in the WH ....
Nevertheless ... This is pure poppycock ... THAT girl wouldnt have had a 'mine' to worry about, had the american government behaved as rational states do ....
Furthermore: Bravery ? ... HOW is a child 'brave' when they cannot possibly fathom the danger such a mine possesses for them ? ...
IGNORANT ..... not brave ....
This kind of projection really gets my goat ...
Dont we ALL love 'little girls' ? ...
Dont we ALL think them cuter than punch ? ..
That isnt the point though: is it ? ...
A BILLION cute little girls holding dollies cannot POSSIBLY wipe away the pain and suffering felt on BOTH side by innocents who have been harmed ...
This appeal to emotion is fallacious; it is absurd ... and it is absolutely disgusting ....
Please .... STOP trying to pretty up the ugliness of war, with posed images from Hallmark cards ...
Get real ....
