There aren't enough sheep on earth to make up for replacing plain slaughter with glib apologies.

Hook us with the outrageous and then pile on the propaganda....
"DEBATE"? They're "debating" the legality? Jesus fuck.
Contractor "Road Warriors" abounding....
Not popping his cork hard enough for me....
How about curing warmongers instead?
No, that would be propaganda yer talkin', Stephen....
But, yes, you should watch it. Bite down on a rag or something. Do it.
CIVILIZED PEOPLE !!!
And SHEEP come easy to vice admirals.
ReplyDeleteM-E-A-N-I-N-G-L-E-S-S shit just never stops oozing from them. Never. It's driving me 'round the bend. THEY N-E-V-E-R SAY A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G MEANINGFUL ANYMORE. I can't stand it!
Am I the only one noticing this?
I don't want the father to blow himself up, but this glib gesture holds NO apology, NO remorse and responsibility. IT'S PURE THEATER.
ReplyDeleteIT'S A FUCKING I-N-S-U-L-T TO A HUMAN WHO HAS JUST BEEN MORTALLY HURT.
The more I think about it, the madder I get.
EXACTLY!
ReplyDeletePoor sheep!
ReplyDeleteLiterally tens of Americans were shocked this week to discover that the United States military likes to kill people. Unsettling news, yes, particularly for those of us who had assumed in good faith that one million Iraqis had accidentally slipped on a banana peel one morning and fallen into a pile of mislaid cruise missiles, but before we leap to all sorts of unsightly conclusions, calling Our Boys "mass-murderers" just because they happen to enjoy the occasional mass-murder, let's remember that in the fog of war with the eggs and the omelettes and the War Is Hell, who can say what's right and wrong, what's good and evil, who's an unarmed pregnant woman and who's a ticking time bomb threatening to produce future foreigners? Our troops have a job to do, after all - defending our country from those countries who would defend their country from our country - and if we hounded and nit-picked them after every little massacre, gang rape or atrocity, they'd hardly get any killing done at all.
ReplyDeleteNow, is this video disturbing? Of course. Were atrocities committed, innocents slaughtered, corpses desecrated and children maimed? Absolutely. But was it all done according to proper procedure? Ah, now, that's the question. We should all certainly be willing to support a full and complete investigation into the possibility of an official recommendation for preliminary motions toward an investigation, looking into the matter of whether or not the people here were properly murdered in triplicate, signed twice on the goldenrod form, in accordance with the Code of Canon Law. And we shouldn't rest until any guilty parties have been found, and strongly-worded disciplinary Post-Its firmly applied to their personnel files.
Apart from that, I don't think we have to spend much time thinking about this sort of thing - this is an isolated incident, just like this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this - and one has to accept a certain amount of rape, torture and murder with one's military. After all, if the military wasn't free to rape and torture people, then it certainly wouldn't be free to murder them; and if the military wasn't free to murder people, then it wouldn't be free to slaughter them en masse; and if the military wasn't free to slaughter people en masse, then what would we even have a military for?

Well, since you put it that way... :-P
