800 soldiers with rockets VS 3 men and a child with guns...Im not proud

[anabolicmd]

Im not proud of our army's attack on the house and Im not proud that well be paying an Arab ratfink 30 million for the information. Wouldnt it have been better to set a trap and capture them alive? This way, they look like heroes and martyrs in Arab eyes.

there is a certain bent appeal in the act of swatting a gnat
with a sledge hammer...

I seriously disagree. Do you have any idea how much the Iraqi people HATE Hussein's sons? They are probably celebrating just as much as we are right now. I think the massive use of force was perfect, and absolutely neccessary. I doubt anyone asides from MAYBE Hussein himself will be in tears. And think of the plague that we've freed the world from. These people raped and killed 13-14 year old IRAQI girls, and that was one of their NICER exploits. Man........how can you be at all sympathetic for people like this?

You do realize that this is the mindset that allows them to fly planes into buildings and be cheered at home?

It was a lose-lose situation. You kill them ? They're martyrs. You catch them alive ? Their supporters will strap bombs on them and blow anything possible.

So we are the same as they are?

Yeah, they raped 14 year old girls, threw people into big paper shredders, they stuck really big needles in the eyes of schoolchildren who misbehaved...and Jessica Lynch fought off armed attackers till her last bullet and then she got her leg broken and was stabbed in heavy hand to hand combat. My point is, stories can be propaganda. I prefer to look at facts.
