20. It was the "insurgents" fault...
<snip>
"But Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt, the coalition's deputy director of military operations, said on Monday the blame lay with the insurgents.

"Collective punishment is imposed on the people of Fallujah by those terrorists and cowards that hunker down inside mosques, hospitals and schools and use women and children as shields to hide," he said."

It's not our fault that F16's and 500 pound bombs take a lot of "collatorals" along with them.

We're upping the karma stakes every day. I guess that the people Kimmitt speaks of couldn't fathom a powerful military capable of disregarding the safety of innocents... Sorry, this war is being run by a man/administration who does not care and seems to revel in dealing death.

*sigh*

God forgive America.
