"Only thing wrong with that picture is the little fucker is still alive.

As for my upbringing my entire family would disagree with everything I said in this thread.

I'm a very emotional person who does not forgive enemies easily.
I don't know about the rest of you but I still have the image of mother, fathers, sons, and daughters falling from 90+ stories to avoid being burned to death.

I know what I'm saying is wrong but I don't care about whats right only whats smart, and the smart thing IMO is wipe them all out. The only way to rebuild Iraq is to first to destroy everything and everyone there."

I know this guy obviously has to be a troll but there are other posts in this thread that absolutely sicken me. Regardless of where you stand on this war you should be able to acknowlege the tragedy of civilian deaths or injury.

Its amusing how Americas coverage of international politics and affairs have become less and less prominenet in American news but now suddenly every American man and his dog is an expert in the affairs of the middle east. A few people in this thread have made reference to september 11 in dehumanising that poor injured child. The very same people who ridicule the lack of freedoms and democracy in the middle east fail to realise how manipulated they have been by thier very own 'democratic' media. Almost all the sept. 11 attackers were from Saudi Arabia yet we barely hear a peep from official sources regarding the Saudi's, its just insane.

That CHILD is not responsible for sept. 11 and if you can convince yourself that he is in justifying his injuries then you are a very sick individual indeed.

HAHA little troll hehe
Hey Bone remember shortly after 9/11 they showed tapes of Osama's training grounds for new terrorists? They were all between the ages of 10-16yrs old. Who's to say that kid wasn't pro bin laden or pro saddam. Maybe he wasn't, i really don't care. But the one thing that sickens me about you bleeding heart liberals is you only know how to attack someone with a different view point. This is a DEMOCRACY and if I wanna stand in my street with that kids picture in my hand singing "burn baby burn" I will. You make it like I'm cheering after I just saw a little kid down my street get hit by a bus. That is an innocent child.

And your right I am using 9/11 here because I had know Idea that kids this age were training in terrorist camps. Let me ask you this if tomorrow they found out this kids family was in support of saddams regime and in a couple years that kid was going to fight in saddams guard would anyone care about him then? no probably not. You guys are suckers for this propaganda they smear around hoping to get use to ask ourselves if maybe we are the enemy. You guys a gettin sucked right in.

Babydoc I don't know what you're talking about, I just posted a thread complaining that these sites aren't showing the other side of the story, that side being Saddam's brutality.

 

[big_bad_buff]

Who's your enemy......a 10 year old kid? Why the fuck not wipe you out.......the only country i see attacking people is your's. Maybe we should all chip in and have China nuke your sorry ass.

I apologise to all decent Americans for my above comment, but this guy's an asshole.

yes probably because when Iraq dropped bombs containing mustard gas, Sarin and Tabun on the Kurdish city of Halabja it wasn't televised. Estimated 50,000 to 100,000 Kurdish villagers were killed.

i wonder how the people that danced in the streets post 9-11 who were called animals would describe someone who feels zero remorse for the maiming of an innocent child

really makes u wonder sometimes.....how the picture of this child can somehow be justified by the lack of pictures of past attrocities commited by saddam....

the fact of the matter is collateral damage is just another term used to gloss over the fact innocent civillians will die in every war. i just hope these deaths are kept to a minimum and that at the end of it we don;t shaft the iraqi's yet again

(p.s. babydoc the picture of the results of the suicide bombings in israel are shown on TV, just as the results of the Israeli IDF counter attack are)

 

[the nature boy]

Nice Photoshop job there!

I guess the NBC nightly news story they just ran on that kid was photoshopped too!
