From the CNN story: "Video showed crowds chanting and cheering at the scene..." I'm sorry, but after reading the story and seeing the pictures, the only thing I can think is "So they don't have weapons of mass destruction. Don't we?" I was rather moved a while back by an interview with Iraqi students attending schools here and one said his biggest problem with the American mindset was something to the effect of "You think your blood is more precious than ours." I thought it was a particularly moving statement that succinctly described a common problem with Americans. An inability to see or value anything beyond our own noses. But when something like this happens, and the civilians who were praising us as saviors before are cheering this kind of brutality against civilians who were seeing to it that they got fed, how's an American supposed to think anything but that Iraqi's (especially Sunni's) aren't people? If a dog bites the hand that's literally feeding it, don't feed it. If it revels in the act of biting the hand, put a bullet in its head.
