I'm just trying to figure out what you object to. I've never you seen you so upset about the US killing Iraqi civilians, so it seems to go beyond just the civilian death issue. That leaves the method. I don't have any knowledge of US intentionally killing Iraqi civilians for no purpose other than....to protest the insurgents? Of course any person's death in the Iraq campaign is regrettable. To me, it appears to be the cost of getting a culture/people so messed up by Saddam's regime back on the track of potential world acceptance and development. I would support the same forced military removal of the Burmese regime, the North Korean regime, or any country where a government rules its people by force and to their own detriment. Anyway, that's not even the correct comparison. The correct analogy would be someone in the US military killing random American civilians and then killing himself, as his method of expression of protest. We would agree the dude was sick! Do you admit the military presence/suicide bomber corelation? Sure. Correlations are everywhere. There is probably a 99% correlation of suicide bombings and being more than three thousand miles from Iceland. Whoop de do. That correlation doesn't make me think the bomber was created by some military guys patrolling a street as much something in his own religion/culture/society that is messed up.
