ANd it's not like Al_Zarqawi and other terrorists would actually try to look civilian while bombin busses and other innocent people so it's hard to tell who is who.
No....It's one reason we are losing this "War". They're willing to do dirty work and we are not. We used to be. Intead, we just let this war go on and on, while our boys get blown to shreds.
The US military has Honor and Respect for other persons. We try not to kill civilians. It's part of the Geneva Convention rules we fight by. As far as "dirty work," 50 years ago civilian newscasters respected the President and this country and didn't report every mistake the government or military made in the news world wide. Remember, there were presidents that could not walk, had affairs with actressess and their screwups were not in world view. Now every reporter is looking for "The Story" putting the news above the greater good of this country.
