1.it's a bit curious that the content of these documents have already been evaluated before they've been read isn't it?
2. if you're serious about this "shit happens" approach, why bother with rules of war at all?
torture? shit happens.
massacres of civilians? shit happens.
problems with accountability of mercenaries/contractors? shit happens.
it's all good.
shit just happens.
3. don't you find disturbing the idea that information flows are fragmented into myriad narrowcasts that enable consumers to customize infotainment to include only what they want to hear? so if you don't want to address a reality, you simply tune it out?
so the war in iraq is a tv show that not everyone wants to watch. or think about. it's no different from glee, really.
