A Response To: "The Lesson of Fallujah" by John Gibson

My Response:

Your assumption is that Iraqis want us there and that some, if not many, are not willing to die or have their homes destroyed in order to see us gone. Conversely, you assume that they are equally willing to die to stand up to insurgents who will summarily kill them for resisting. (You did live through Vietnam, right?) Furthermore, you assume we can provide enough security to ensure that the second assumption won't happen - which we obviously cannot. And, finally, you are assuming that people who have NEVER known freedom or the benefits thereof are willing to lay down their lives on the premise that invader's ideas of how to live a better life start with an invasion and the killing of 100,000 civilians.

That's quite an array of assumptions to get to your premise that examples of retribution will somehow bring them around to our way of thinking.

Beatings will continue until morale improves.

Simple is as simple does.

John Gibson is kept on Faux News in order to make Bill O'Liely look like a moderate. Can you imagine the xenophobic, hate-filled spawn that would come forth from a joining of Ann Coulter and John Gibson?
