We are sending more troops to Iraq. What do we expect them to do? Shoot people, right?
Isn't that going to increase the level of violence? How is that a good thing?
Maybe we should also use a little common sense when it comes to the civilian casualties. It might shed some light on why the Iraqis aren't greeting us as liberators.
How would you feel if someone invaded where you live, killed a couple of your family members, and then repeatedly insisted that this was for your own good?
I'm going to go out on a limb, and say that I would probably not think favorably of the invaders. I, like most sane human beings, would be pretty enraged at the fact someone just killed people I loved. It's pretty much a given that I, and most people, would not like the invaders after they killed my family.
I could be wrong, but you know I probably not.
And we wonder why these Iraqis want us out of Iraq. Wouldn't you want the invaders to leave after they killed your family and then had the gal to insist that it was for your own good?
