People should keep in mind this isn't the first time US troops have fired on a Mosque, during the battle for Baghdad for example one rather large (the name will no doubt come to me in five minutes) Mosque was heavily damaged by US tanks and IFV's shooting RPG and machine gun crews out of its upper levels.

I thought it was genocide, and making this planet safe for ignorant racist, fundamentalist, psychopaths running to make the USA into a christian throcracy.

I suppose you would be the first person to get offended if I start making crass remarks about the World Trade Centre or civilian contractors in Iraq being strung up, but jokes about genocide are OK, right?
Jokes about WTC? Meh I might chuckle along with. Jokes about civilian contractors in Iraq? No, don't think so seeing as my FATHER is one of those over there.

At this rate we may as well just bomb everyone (including us) into the stone age. Who knows, maybe it'll improve the average level of common sense.

And sadly those that would remain would not improve...either way the Iraq conflict/war/FUBNARed mess has become into one fuck up after another since the main conflict ended, wherein Bush and Co keep saying we're doing good, and good men are still dying for no good reason.

Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all

Saying and doing are chocolate and concrete
