That's Daswig, a few posts up. Killing civilians on a regular basis and/or massive scale is a war crime. Thousands of Iraqis losing their lives is not just a "bad" thing. We're getting sorely unable to even see them as human. We're supposed to be bringing freedom or something? Our role in inflicting mass death on the Iraqi people not only harms them, but rots our souls. When you cease to see the object of your violence as human, you've become a monster.

Such talk is not war. It is the depraved corruption of power, and the worst of sins. If you're kidding? Fine...whatever. I often joke about committing murders...or other desecrations of human dignity. Other people suffering is teh funnay. You're not? See above.
