Soldiers face murder in Iraq

"You and Ziggy would rather see a Bush and co. loss than an American victory."

Kev, that line puts you in Abccdx territory, and very close to Vinth territory. That's just bizarre, and I can only assume it' the Niquil talking. I'm not going to speculate what's in your heart, I'll stick to your politics. After all, it's not as if anything you've posted suggest that you'd rather see every single Iraqi dead than admit your faith in our battle against evil doers was misplaced. That would be a real leap, don't you think?

If you mean by 'American victory' the establishment of a working democracy and peace in the region, I would far, far, far, far, far rather see that than a Bush company loss. If you can't believe that, thats your lookout. What would it take to convince you? If I totally stopped posting about any objection I might have to American conduct, would you beleive me then?

Sure, I loathe Bush, and I believe he's damaging the country, but I care way more about the death toll and the human suffering more than my personal dislike for this administration no matter how intense, and more even than my fear for my country, which is significant. I don't think Ziggy has said that, or me, or anyone. You're really becoming a kind of tremulous old Victorian Lady, Kev.

While I won't offer to stop posting here, I totally agree with Zig. You seem to have moved to a point where your interior Max is more real to you than anything I have to say.

"Bwooo-ah, BwoooooooOOOO-AH! I'd rather see the earth decimated by nuclear fire than say Bush can tie his own tie!! I'M A SCARY HIPPY!!"

Happy?
