  •  That's the sad part. (none / 0)

    People having any sort of ethical standards or religion find this repulsive.  I can't imagine how this terrible disrespect of Islamic bodies will be received. Well, Islamic groups do know it and are pressing for something to be done.  Wonder when they'll no longer be viewed as fussy towel-heads and treated seriously.

    Plus, factor in that our troops are now using Israeli made bullets to do the snuffing ...whatever good will 'capital' we've managed to scrape up with Arabic peoples, in spite of all the negatives, in the last few years is probably totally smoked now.  Karen Hugh's frosty reception in Turkey was probably a big clue stick meeting the thick administration noggin.

    Of course, the morale and trustworthiness of our own troops isn't helped by the Pentagon turning on officers and their subordinates who dare to be whistleblowers.  How many military are sitting on major powder keg stories out of fear of just this sort of vengeful persecution of those daring to reveal the truth?  What confidence will this instill in the citizens of occupied countries where these officers serve?  This sort of military urge to eat it's own truthtellers works against us as a nation and our role in the world, as well as those daring to speak truth to power.  It's endangering our missions abroad.

    The centripetal forces of corruption, callousness, crime, addiction, torture and bankruptcy fostered by the RNC threatens us all to the core, in the homeland and abroad.  We can't let this go on like this for it is surely our undoing.  We must show the most vigorous oppostion we can to retake our homeland back from these usurpers.  We must end this insanity now.

    When life gives you wingnuts, make wingnut butter!
