WORDS OF WISDOM FROM AN AMERICAN SERVICEMAN

By Trevor Bothwell

There's a lot of great commentary about the fake Newsweek story accusing U.S. interrogators at Gitmo of sending a copy of the Koran down the throne (see here, here, and here for starters), but nothing beats an email one of our guys sent Arthur Chrenkoff the other day:

No wonder the rest of the world thinks we're the evil ones. We're the ones telling them we are, over and over again. How about a story where the Army Major carries a dying Iraqi kid in his arms, visibly distraught at the carnage those bastards lay on little kids every day? How about a power plant coming on line, or kids going to a new school, or a market with free people shopping, or the 30 attacks that DIDN'T go off because of the other 99% of interrogations that went according to plan? Nope, it's just those evil, war-mongering, blood-for-oil soldiers, doing what "everybody knows" they do when no one's looking.

[...]

If this is how liberals support the troops, then could they please f*cking STOP already?

No kidding.
