Slow Learners
I understand we killed a bunch of people, including women and children, in an attack in western Iraq. They say it was a wedding party. We say they were foreign fighters.
How convenient, using a “wedding party” as a cover for hiding amongst women and children. Cowards!
They say partygoers had fired into the air in a traditional wedding celebration. (at 3:00 am.?) They say American troops have sometimes mistaken celebratory gunfire for hostile fire. We’ve told them, if you shoot at us, you will have to suffer the consequences. DO NOT shoot at our planes and helicopters. Repeat 100 times. Stop capping ‘em off at weddings. Repeat 100 times. Aim at the ground. Repeat 100 times.
The Arab media sucks worse than ours. These people must be slower learners than I thought.
If I was flying over Iraq, and detected fire in my direction, I’d shoot back. Wouldn’t you?
This is war. Dumb Asses.
