"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Petraeus Apologizes for Deaths in Afghan Strike
Submitted by Sharon Secor on Wed, 2011-03-02 22:03
“U.S. Gen. David Petraeus, the coalition's commander in Afghanistan, issued a rare apology Wednesday for a helicopter strike that killed nine children, hours after Afghan President Hamid Karzai condemned the allies for launching what he called a "ruthless attack."” F$%# his apology. It means nothing to the parents of those dead children. What justification do we have for being overseas killing people, killing children? NONE. Dead children upset you? STOP GIVING THE STATE MONEY.

I propose that the US military execute one American citizen for each "collateral damage" war death that occurs, just to be fair. Make sure you register your family for the lottery drawings.
