		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;“Maj Mark Bieger killing” an Iraqi kid.

Asswipe.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It's not Maj. Bieger's empathy and humanity that I'm concerned with, it's yours. 

We can't drop bombs in residential neighborhoods, even if we thinking we're killing some terrorists, or some militants, or insurgents, and then walk around insisting we're there to help and protect and show the virtues of freedom. If someone starts taking potshots at patrol cars from an apartment building in the ghetto in L.A., they don't just drop a bunch of ordinance on the building, do they? Because it would get lots of innocent people killed. And that's what we're doing in Iraq, while purporting to be upholding some rule of law or standard of decency.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Unfortunately, not an event likely to happen. It’s not so much that Middle Eastern individuals that blame the West that are a problem, as it is that Arab society is something that is dysfunctional.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

OMG, I agree with you! So what are we doing over there if Arab society is so dysfunctional?</description>

		<description>BROKEN COMMENTS is Levi.  His comment was hung up in the spam filter for whatever reason and I guess he tried a different name.  Don't think he has a web site.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Something you will never hear from leftists in our own country. Also, something you will never see gain traction as an ideological option among our own leftist media or their echo chambers.

It takes a foreigner to appreciate the attempted fraud. He hasn’t been spoiled rotten by our willingness to simply absorb slander, sedition and treason.

It takes an open mind and …a working one…to take the first element&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Slander like this?
