Random ass thought
Sikotic™:
There's lots of tragedies forgotten. Only the recent ones are remembered. One of the reasons why we'll never truly learn from our mistakes.
J @ M @ L:
A better question would've been: Why is it a tragedy when hundreds or a couple thousand Americans die, but tens of thousands of dead Iraqis just happens to be another statistic (in some cases.. collateral damage) ... ?
If a bomb kills an American family... it's a disgusting attack by cowards... but a bomb dropped on a family in Afghanistan is a "mishap" or "error"...
No matter how you want to look at this shit... the root of the problem will always be U.S. foreign policy... it's always gonna come back down to that shit...
Why were the Mujahideen in Afghanistan called freedom fighters, but the ones in Iraq are called insurgents, terrorists, etc...? They're fighting for the same exact shit... driving out an occupation... it just so happens that Americans rather than Soviets are the aggressors in the latter case...
