And yet, we wonder why we are so hated by these people. As I tried to be objective while looking at this, The dead and maimed children flipped a switch with me. I now completely understand why the administration has tried to ban as much private information from getting out, they are afraid.
If everyone could see this , I honestly think public opinion would dramatically change, and support for this war would diminish quickly. Yes, I realize war is hell, and innocent people die, but I guarantee you if these were my children, I would lose it and take out as many of the people who did this as I possibly could. When it is compounded by hundreds(or thousands) we dont actually know how many. You will have a population of armed, revenge seeking parents, trying their damndest to blow you away.
Kind of like what we have there now.
I feel very badly for Joe soldier, fighting civilians on a daily basis, and probably well aware that they are pissed off for good reason. What a terrible position to be in.
