I don't believe the human rights organizations have much of an axe to grind here

Oh, come now. Surely you can't say that with a straight face.

Most -- probably more like virtually all if not all -- of the people who run the International Red Cross HATE George Bush. they are totally politicized, with a totally politicized agenda.

Not that the Bush Administration and U.S. Military don't. I think you're wise not to rely on them for objective information.

But by the same token, you're equally not wise to rely on the IRC for objective information.

If you don't like Monday morning quarterbacking, I suspect you will not enjoy Feelies, or much of SI, really. It's one of the most popular sports here.
