Well, we'll have to disagree. If you are a child and you pick up a gun and start to murder people, even if it's because someone sold you a bill of goods about something worth dying for, then you simply lose my sympathy. They make themselves a target the moment they pick up a gun.

I grieve for the innocent Iraqis that are trying to rebuild the country and are getting slaughtered. I grieve for the hostages who were in Iraq to help rebuild and help the Iraqi people and then lost their heads for their trouble. I grieve for our troops who are stuck with half-ass leaders, with poor execution plans, even though the vision is noble.

Tejek, if you want to be politically correct, I can understand that given all the pressures in today's world to be that way. But political correctness also involves being unbiased. So why don't you balance your statements with grief for both sides of this equation, the poor young terrorists and the innocent Iraqis and aid workers who get caught in the middle. At least that would make you more credible. But open bias in favor of terrorists is silly at best, sick at worst.
