Reply #89: You keep saying that as if Iraqis have no right to protect

themselves. All reports I have read now say there may have been 'one gun' at the scene. But no shots were fired at the helicopters, and if they felt they were in danger, all they had to do was leave the area. Clearly they felt no threat, or they would have said so.

Every American has the right to carry a gun, 2nd Amendment in case you didn't know, I see lots of defense of that amendment here. And in Iraq, considering the nightmare that is only imagined here, justifying not disarming the population, Iraq is living that nightmare.

The only way anyone can defend this, is if they believe that the occupation of Iraq is just. Otherwise, ever killing of an Iraqi citizen is a crime. And there are no excuses.
