161. Lets lay out the whole truth here, shall we tralfaz?
Edited on Thu Feb-17-05 12:08 PM by IrateCitizen
this was a man who gassed his own people with the supplies we had given him, while we looked the other way, his secret police killed many tens (hundreds?) of thousands of people while he was on our payroll, and we looked the other way.

I don't see anyone here cheering for the deaths of our military personnel. What I do see is the recognition that the only way we can prevent dishonorable and unjust uses of military force in the future is for the situation to degenerate to the point that it shakes people out of their soft, fluffy cocoons insulating them from reality. Wishing death on our military folks is a projection you assigned, not anything anyone actually said or implied.

And I must say I feel sorry for people like you, people who adopt a worldview in which they are an American first, and a human being second. Consistently denying reality so as to not upset your worldview becomes a tiring exercise over time.
