| The alleged attack on Afghans by an American soldier in Kandahar, where 91 soldiers have been murdered last year alone, is already receiving the full outrage treatment. Any outrage over the deaths of those 91 soldiers in the province will be completely absent. There will be no mention of how many of them died because the Obama Administration decided that the lives of Afghan civilians counted for more than the lives of soldiers. No talk of what it is like to walk past houses with gunmen dressed in civilian clothing inside and if you are fired at from those houses, your orders are to retreat. Reminds me of Intifada I |

| #2 But the question is what value do we place on our lives? What value do we place on theirs? ItÂ’s one thing when Op/Ed pieces wander from thought-provoking into the provocative but this bigoted shit is well beneath RantburgsÂ’ standards. (IMO) |

| #1 Looks like the poor guy got caught up in the big bush shopping trip and economic failure of housing and the programming he was getting just didn't go down the right neural network. Perhaps they should stick to movies and being fake instead of trying to run a country much less the world. From what i have read they don't give a shi about anything except money and little kids (naked) ones. Afghanistan was a failure by November the government was already compromised internally! Peace. |
