The good guy and bad guy thing is an issue unto itself.
As we know there are no distinctions when we label and group and unfortunately the good soldiers who are really trying to reach out to he IRAQ civilians and make friends are grouped right in with the bad. It is just like after Viet Nam. All the G.I's who returned home.. well not ALL but a great many of them were shunned. They were thought of as KILLERS OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN. This was not fair.

But we do not live in a FAIR world, do we as those who have lived the longest can attest.

This is the dilemma that faces the military today. We have to make the enemy bad and badder.... and the cutting off of the head of that worker does help our cause in painting them...those guys, he terrorists as really bad while we are just more civilized in that we don't cut off heads.
