This is probably the cleanest war ever fought but no war is clean enough for the anti warriors. Our surrender is the only thing these folks understand because then we cant commit war crimes which they view we do at every turn.
I am so pissed off at that footage being shown out of context on american TV. I want to see the 38 beheadings that are censored here but cheered on al jazeera. Thats barbarism. What that marine did was part of war. Yesterday i heard a report that marines found a couple of terrorists napping and they shot them dead Maybe they should have woken them up first to make it a fair fight. mike

> War is disgusting, no doubt about it. However, that Marine didn't ask to be shot at by suicidal terrorists. He's just doing his job. <

Ignoring the fact for a moment, that the video makes it perfectly clear that there was no danger in that room, I'm sure the Iraqi's fighting the "coalition forces" didn't ask the US to invade Iraq.

What's your point?

When Milosovic or one of his henchmen killed wounded or unarmed people, its called a war crime. What was that we witnessed yesterday? Justice?
