Someone please explain to me how this is different from the Miami 7?

How come the person who wrote this letter and others like him shouldn't be rounded up and prosecuted if you are going to use the "aspiration phase" as our fine I have a law degree but I don't know shit about the law Attorney General stated as an excused for arresting the Miami 7?

'Post' Publishes Letter That Advocates Beheading Editors, Pundits

NEW YORK Did The Denver Post go too far in publishing a letter to the editor today that advocates the beheading of editors, commentators, and politicians who have criticized the treatment of prisoners at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay? And how many other papers publish such sentiments?

According to Editorial Page Editor Jon Wolman, publishing such a letter is not out of bounds.

"Clearly, it is an extreme commentary and you might expect it reflects a strain of opinion that is out there," Wolman told E&P. "We make an editorial judgment. Is it too extreme for people to know that there is a strain of that commentary out there? Sadly, some people feel as strongly as the letter-writer."

The letter was written, ironically, by a resident of Littleton, Colo., site of the bloody Columbine High School shootings in 1999. It appeared to be in reaction to coverage of the recent kidnapping and murder of two U.S. soldiers in Iraq.

"Why have those who have continually howled at our treatment of prisoners at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo met the recent kidnapping and sadistic and brutal murders of our two young soldiers with deafening silence?" the letter began. "Where is your outrage now?" It then stated that the U.S. "should" behead 100 prisoners in retaliation, as well as " editors, commentators, college professors and left-wing congressmen who would suddenly break their silence to come out in support of these enemy jihadists. We need to stop listening to these sanctimonious hypocrites who apply the rules of war only to our side."

Wolman said he did not know what, if any, reaction the letter had prompted, but said, "I wasn't expecting anybody to be beheaded if that is what you are asking."

1. This is exactly the mentality that's in the WH....

Our side condoned the torture....did these people honestly think there would be no retaliation....are they in kindegarten....what the fuck is wrong with these people?

And who in America is supporting the insurgents killing our soldiers....the Republicans are just stupid...that's all there is to say...
