As a natural corollary to this goal, I think the United States should avoid dropping munitions on civilian neighborhoods which, as a side effect, melt the skin off of children. You can call them "chemical weapons" if you must, or far more preferably by the more proper name of "incendiaries". The munitions may or may not precisely melt the skin off of children by setting them on fire; they do melt the skin off of children, however, through robust oxidation of said skin on said children, which is indeed colloquially known as "burning". But let's try to avoid, for now, the debate over the scientific phenomenon of exactly how the skin is melted, burned, or caramelized off of the aforementioned children. I feel quite confident that others have put more thought into the matter of how to melt the skin off of children than I have, and will trust their judgment on the matter.......

And, as I wrote in my blog, when Italian media acts more freely than yours, your situation is DESPERATE.
ReplyDeleteSomebody should at least write subtitles on that Fallujah Italian video, it's quite shocking.

ReplyDeleteYes! Kos noted today that the pic of a dead US soldier in the NYT was perhaps the first the mainstream media have hosted. Never has the United States been so completely failed by its media.
