I Shot Bin Laden (But I Did Not Shoot the Taliban)

"Time will tell on their power minds,
Making war just for fun.
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
Wait till their judgement day comes."

--Black Sabbath, War Pigs

There was much gloating over a recent death in Iraq. It's even been said our traitor President is taking a "victory lap" over this in Iraq. Here are some direct quotes from some real live War Pigs:

"This is a message to all those who use violence, killing and devastation to disrupt life in Iraq to rethink within themselves before it is too late." (Talk about ironic!)

"The reported death...is great news for the people of Iraq..." (Ding, dong! The witch is dead!)

"Sooner or later evil people meet their just desserts. The entire world of people who believe in freedom and peace can take solace in what happened." (Whew, hate to be one them there bad guys!)

There's been much talk of renewed optimism for our war. Unfortunately, it's not optimism the war will end but a hope for approval by those who started it. Such a noble goal. And the cause of all this celebration? It's over this:

"...the bodies of two women, a man and a young girl killed in the bombing were turned over to Iraqi authorities. None were identified."

Oh sure, you probably thought those quotes were about the terrorist guy who was killed. Nah, it's the innocent civilians we gloat over, those we conciously decided to kill. Saying civilians getting killed in war is no big deal is the same as saying 9/11 was no big deal. But if you want to rant and rave about serving the greater good, that's all fine and dandy. But first you gotta prove it: tell me you would trade your daughter's life for the life of a terrorist.


(But it's OK to trade their kids)
