Army Braces For Worst As Trophy Photos of Murdered Afghan Civilians Leak
Army Braces For Worst As Trophy Photos of Murdered Afghan Civilians Leak
Who killed the Afghan civilians? Not the Taliban -- US forces. Twelve men are on trial in Seattle for going That is older news -- they're already being prosecuted -- but now Der Spiegel has published the photos. Some of the activities of the self-styled "kill team" are already public, with 12 men currently on trial in Seattle for their role in the killing of three civilians.The frustrating thing is that the Taliban-lovin' Pashtun, confronted with shoe-on-the-other-foot demonstrations of psychopathic murder, will never put 2 and 2 together and realize "Wait a minute! This is what we're doing! This is wrong!" Obama Ghraib? Drudge's new headline makes a point I didn't consider -- this is Obama's Abu Ghraib. I hate politicizing stuff like this, but I'll do it defensively: The claim was made that Abu Ghraib was chargeable to Rumsfield, Cheney, and Bush, that it went "straight to the top," that it was their cowboy mismanagement that encouraged it or caused it. Well. What about this "kill team" then? We seem to have a very, very, very distracted president. Maybe if he spent more time watching Afghanistan than practicing his drive he could have averted this. It took me a fair amount of searching to discover when these crimes took place -- under Bush or under Obama? Since most media reports don't provide this basic information, I began to suspect that it occurred under Obama. Suspicion confirmed. When and where did these crimes take place?My point is not that this is Obama's fault but rather that it as much Obama's fault as Abu Ghraib was Bush's -- that is, not really either man's fault. But if the leftist media is going to claim outrages are always chargeable to top leadership, then they have to explain why that rule applies to Bush but not to Obama. Although, in fairness -- Obama's lazy and spends most of his time watching basketball games and playing golf. So he probably really didn't have anything to do with it, as it has barely anything to do with any major event that occurs in the country or the world.
