Regarding the Wikileaks documents – I have only read of them, not read them but it’s appearing that one of our major transgressions is that Iraqis tortured Iraqi prisoners during a time when Iraq was officially sovereign.
Hmmmmmm.
Wow. this is the big deal? And what was the US supposed to do if they investigated claims that the Iraqi government tortured its citizens? Invade? Yeah, I bet Julian Assange, the hysterical Left, and their Islamist allies would love that.
It’s the problem with America haters like Assange, Chomsky, and Osama bin Laden: it’s a worldview where America is always in the wrong, no matter what we do.
When we act, it’s evidence of US Imperialism. When we don’t act, it’s evidence of the US not caring about brown people.
Yes, I realize we’re supposed to be better and helicopters killing surrenderers is not good. But the big beef seems to be allowing a sovereign country to tortures it’s own. We’ll never win that one.
