We have the most benevolent army in the world. We do everything we can to help the Iraqi people and avoid civilian casualties. Then there are scum like you that spit on our soldiers.

Reminds me of a line from the movie Cool Hand Luke: "I wish you'd stop being so good to me, captain."

Bad things happen in war??? Omigod! Why didn't someone tell me???!



Now show us your pictures of the two million dead from saddam's wars, the corpses of his 600,000 domestic political enemies, and pictures of the rape and torture sessions. And oh yeah - the video of him having one of his errant generals eaten alive by attack dogs - that would be cool!

I don't think we should have gone there to begin with. The Iraq war was based on a lie. I voted for Bush the first time, in part because I believed his lie about "no nation building!" But once there, there was no turning back. The troop surge is one of the very few things that he's done which I agree with. He waited for forever & a day to do it, and apparently had to be pushed into the idea, but at least he (finally!) followed some good advice.

Between the troop surge and paying & arming both sides (nothing says friendship like free 7.62 ammo), things seemed to have calmed down quite a bit. Score 1 for Duh-bya.

As for these pictures, I already know very well what bullets do to flesh. No, we shouldn't be in Iraq. But you could find similar (or worse) pictures coming out of Darfur... and there's no real American presence there. So, what's your point??? Shock value for the city dwellers who have never seen bullet wounds?

Default correctable error, fix the scorebook

no, score one for the military
when the politicians finally got out of the way (removed rumsfeld) and asked the military leadership how the war needed to be fought we see a level of competence in the conduct of this war and positive outcomes (finally)

Well, OK. But the board neocons must keep in mind that I tried to slip 1 in for Lil Jorge.

They would have to tell you, because you're too much of a coward to actually go fight in one. You're also a hypocrite for supporting wars you refuse to fight in yourself. Like most Neocons, you think wars are a great idea, as long as someone else has to do the fighting and the dying. Now tell us some more lies, Blade.

Yeah, and let's see how much of the weapons, dogs and torture equipment used were bought by money given to him from the U.S. and its allies.
