| Cranky Hermit on the church invasion |

"They do not play by the rules and use the fact that they know that we will to their advantage. They know that cultural sensitivity and aversion to civilian casualties will limit our willingness to undertake certain operations. So they hide among civilians and in churches..." They think we're stupid for adhering to such articial constructs. Apologists like Fisk do their best to eradicate the rules' existence. I'm not sure which is the greater evil: the active Evil of the gunnies, or the refusal to confront evil, the attempts to deny its existence, to redefine it as something else, of the Fisks of the world. Jimmy Breslin, back in the days when he could write, wrote a book called The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight. To show what bad guys his Bad Guys were he said that "they shot nuns." When the Islamogunnies get around to popping a few nuns within the confines of a church the apologists - Fisk in the vanguard - will find some reason why they were driven to it. |
