Well, when I say "we" I don't mean me and Cosmo... as far as I know he might want to watch. I meant we as in all of us civilized people of the West.

Keep in mind, too, that we are in a war and little items like this can always be leaks designed to scare the enemy. It could be that America is actually doing nothing wrong at all and stories like this and Abu Ghraib are concocted and leaked to make the enemy think we're really viscious animals that will stop at nothing to get their goats. Well, they actually have goats, so that was a poor choice of words, I suppose...

In fact, it's possible that all the bad stuff we've heard about Iraq and Afghanistan is just propaganda, designed to lure terrorists to what they think will be an American shooting range but which is really a trap. Maybe Fallujia is actually NOT the Terrorist Disney Land CNN makes it out to be, but instead it's one big sting operation. Maybe THAT's why Bush is so happy with Iraq!

It all makes sense now... Our soldiers really were greeted as liberators, and everything has gone swimmingly ever since. American Marines are probably stationed at every border crossing, effectively sealing Iraq off from intruders and capturing foreign terrorists by the truckload as we speak!

Wow. I feel sooooo much better.

haha you are teh stupid
