I'm not dumbfounded. Just a few days ago, we hit a safe house and killed 22 people. Retribution should have been expected.
As highly trained as these guys are, I would suspect a ploy of some kind was used. Perhaps feigning to be friends of the soldiers and thereby putting them off guard.
HOWEVER, we need to see the brutality of this war .. we need to see the horror of what these people are capable of. We need to see Paul Johnson's photos all over in the print media, not almost hidden on Drudge.
We are not little children. We see worse things on our TV screens, and in the movies. We need to SEE what our enemy is doing .. we will never win the war at home if we refuse to show the public what these killers are doing.
And .. I don't care if anybody agrees with me.
"Perhaps feigning to be friends of the soldiers and thereby putting them off guard..."
I learned a long time ago, there are no friendlies...
I agree one hundred and ten percent.
By hiding our eyes and not seeing photos, will not make it go away. But it will show the truth of what is really going on.
One picture is worth a thousand words.
