We’re The Bad Guys?

Collateral damage is an unfortunate side effect of war. Innocent people get killed and it is a shame because most of them would be just as happy living their lives without the strife. In WW II the Germans deliberately targeted civilians in London with V2 rockets. In other wars, civilians have been deliberately targeted. The United States does not deliberately target civilians but that does not negate the fact that people killed accidentally are just as dead as those who were killed on purpose.

The war on terror in Iraq has generated civilian casualties. The left can never tell us exactly how many there are because they change the numbers depending upon the situation and who is feeding them the information. Their estimates range from 30 to 100 thousand. These are tragic deaths and they are highlighted even more when grieving families are shown on TV. The news will run non-stop stories about the horror and the Hollywood liberals with their cut and run buddies in the Democratic party will demand that we stop and bring our troops home now. To them, as with our enemies, we are the great Satan. It does not matter that we do not deliberately target civilians, we are bad nonetheless.

There is word today that Taliban militants (a fancy word for terrorists) DELIBERATELY targeted a school full of children. Six kids were killed by rockets fired as part of a campaign against government sponsored education. These animals DELIBERATELY shot rockets at children and killed them. Where are the protests from the Muslims? Where are all the peace loving Muslim people who seem to gather like cockroaches when civilians die as a result of the action of the American military? Where are the Hollywood liberals and their Democratic buddies and how come they are not out demanding that the Taliban immediately leave? This is not some isolated incident:

Dozens of schools have been attacked and many burned since U.S.-led forces ousted the Taliban in 2001 for sheltering terror leader Osama bin Laden. Most of the attacks have come at night and not caused fatalities.

In January, a school headmaster was beheaded in front of his family after refusing to close his school. In October, gunmen shot and killed another principal in front of his students.

The Taliban claim that educating girls is against Islam and they even oppose government-funded schools for boys because they teach subjects besides religion.

The US military makes every attempt to limit collateral damage and is castigated for accidental deaths while the satanic worshipers in the Islamic world DELIBERATELY target and kill children with impunity. It seems to me that the idiots in this country who make negative comments about this war and our military are on the wrong side of the issue. Is it any wonder that the rest of us call them the “Blame America First” crowd?
