Iraqi Children play 'kill the insurgents'....learned from American soldiers.

[spanone]

..... and we were worried.

CNN report: Children of War.

They showed Iraqi kids playing with plastic guns playing a game called 'kill the insurgents'.

Said they learned it from American soldiers. It's their favorite game.

We should be so proud.

1. When I was a kid in the 70's...

We used to play SLA (Symbionese Liberation Army).
The little girl next door would be Patty Hearst and I would be Donald DeFreeze. Some other kids would be the FBI and we would tie up "Patty" and "rob banks" and stuff. None of us grew up malformed.

Kids play fucked up games. That's the lesson here...

5. You didn't grow up in a war zone. I think you underestimate the effect of war on children.

2. The Bush Administration at work - they're probably hiring people to train these innocent kiddos

The Administration is promoting death and destruction everywhere. Because they profit from it.

No one else does however. In the end, they won't either.

as long as no real weapons are used :shrug:
