#1 Sen McCain is on Hannity. He act like he wants to personally go there take care of these Australopithecae (my definition) who hold our guy.

"If you hurt him, we'll find you, and we'll get you."

#2 I don't understand why we don't publicly point out that if the enemy doesn't follow the Geneva Convention, then we don't have to either.

And then not.

What are they going to do, get mad at us? And when the stupid NGO weenies start crying about it, we should just tell them we are "following the conventions of international law and not abiding by the G.C. because our enemy first violated it and under those rules, we now have no rules."

#3 I really don't think the Iraqi's understand us very well. Seeing this phot makes me feel hatred toward them...and I'm a pretty nice person. That doesn't bode well for them on how the rest of our countrymen will take it.

They are wearing out any goodwill that we have left. I'm becoming more worried about the overall backlash that is soon to be forthcoming (in their direction). If they keep this up, it's going to get very ugly, very soon.

#4 B...it needs to get ugly and it needs to do so soon, both in Iraq and in Iran.

#5 It's so sad.

Someone tell me again why we don't carve them up into different countries and just work with the Kurds??

Maybe Sadaam already killed all good people with a spine - making them kinda like France after the French Revolution....it's been 200 years and their gene pool still has not recovered. It's clear we underestimated their ability to act in a logical manner, consistent with the reality of their situation...and it's clear they completely underestimate our ability to tolerate their barbarism.

It's just a shame - once they finally convince us to take our gloves off, there is no doubt it will be ugly all the way around.
