the * Administration....there are absolutely no rules in Iraq....When you have Blackwater murdering Iraqi civilians and not being held accountable....these criminals that are killing these childeren know they will not be held accountable...

The * Administration is responsible for the murder of these civilians....

6. No Shit! For what reason is right... What the hell goes thru these peoples minds?

How could any of these girls or a 4 year old boy possibly be any kind of a threat to anyone... Is this shit happening just for "Shock & Awe"? If so, these monsters should be put to death if caught... (And I don't believe in the Death Penalty)

7. Nobility?

Oil Royalty = Pilate
BushInc = Herod
ALL of the Innocent Dead = Jesus
You = ?

8. Because "true believers" always find "noble" reasons for murder.

Whether it's defending God, protecting our "vital national interests", or, relying on "collateral damage" as the rationale. Even the murderers at Auschwitz believed that they were protecting the "Vaterland".

“What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy.” - Gandhi
