FOX would/will do the same with iraqi dead given the
chance, i dare anyone amongst you to doubt this for
a second - the sick thing with FOX would be that it's
a corporation apart (well, technically) from the US
govt, and they would be doing it for ratings and a
reinforcement of the ever popular "we've long stopped
being credible journalists, exsisting only to
shamelessly root for the good guys in the most
deplorably biased mannor possible" ethic; hell, the
only thing missing from FOX broadcasts are pom poms
and short skirted red white and blue uniforms for the
presenters-
cry me a river ... the geneva convention means fuck
all when america continues to send and detain who ever
they please in "international law free zones" for
indefinite periods of time; ok, so i am not the best
team player for pointing this out, but, the states
play by their own rules, our military budget assures
our words carry more "weight", and in such a situation
international rules are easily chucked aside when
unconvennient, that's what makes it especially ABSURD
when arguements are made like 'iraq is desperate and
savage' for breaking the same international laws the
US treats like toilet paper-
by now, playing by our own rules is completely normal
as to be expected, but when the other side side does
the same they're savage!!! desperate!!! gasp!!!
