Now I understand why redfish sick joke was not offensive to you. Shame on you Chinu. We have every right to denounce wrong. You denounce the wrong of the US, but you do not denounce the wrong of AQ in this case? Weird. Of course we have that right to denounce it, and everyone should exercise thier rights.

My thinking is that let us not do what we are doing to the Iraqis and then in return I will denounce the beheading. But right now we have no moral ground left to denounce such actions since we are ourselves indulging in those acts.

I don't think its ok for us to torture Iraqis. But clearly you can see a slight difference between what we did and sawing off a guys head. If we'd have done that and filmed it the media and everyone else in this country would have gone nuts. The reaction to less violent abuse has been bad enough. But this act is beyond belief.

<<My thinking is that let us not do what we are doing to the Iraqis and then in return I will denounce the beheading.>>

You can denounce both....and should!

<<YOu failed to provide a rationale>>

Only to you and people who will use this as a tool attack Bush. Regardless of what took place this brutal act was wrong - period.
