Searle the troops had no choice as to if they did not go or if they did that is why Canada gets so many people from the US when war breaks out,

So both sides are stuck in this and soon no one is human but androids due to the inability of leaders on any side to communicate effectively enough to end wars.

If business people acted in a like manner products would be few and prices completely out of control. How in the hell can you have a global economy in the midst of a massacre.

Searle i feel terrible because i don't feel there was a better chance for business USA, than one Bush with his attitude of clean and fair to all.

Mother Superior is definitely questioning if God is in dire need of a hearing aid.

Searle: <For this reason, the US soldiers have no right whatsoever to shoot Iraqi civilians, or even soldiers for that matter.>

How about this:

progressive.org

<<According to the March 29 issue of The New York Times, Schrumpf and his fellow sharpshooters sometimes hold their fire when a lot of civilians are in the vicinity. But when fewer civilians are around, they fire away.

Schrumpf recalled one incident where an Iraqi soldier was standing near a woman.

"I'm sorry, but the chick was in the way," he said.

Schrumpf was philosophical to the point of being blasé about civilians "in the way." He said, "We dropped a few civilians, but what do you do?">>

I guess this 'chick' isn't going to be one of the liberated Iraqis...
