Jen to partisan Media: I am sick to death of the Abu Ghraib "story!" Stop it!
FOXNews.com - Politics - Pentagon Denies Rumsfeld OK'd Abuse
I hated this non-story from Day 1!
I hate it more even now!
I trust the Pentagon to handle their own problems--and this abuse of Iraqi detainees was already being investigated long before the Media "broke" the "story!"
If there was abuse of enemy detainees in Iraq, the abusers were already going to be punished without help from the Leftist press.
I want my government to do everything to protect me and to save the lives of our soldiers, too.
I realize that War isn't "pretty" or "nice."
I consider our soldiers to be decent and humane people much like myself who normally aren't cruel or abusive to their fellow human beings.
I was semi-aware that detainees were being "pressured" in various ways to tell our guys what they know and I also believe that many attacks have been prevented from what we've learned from the detainees at Gitmo and in Iraq at Abu Ghraib and you know what?
I expect nothing less.
After 9/11, I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for anyone who gives their allegiance to IslamoFacism and who makes war on the "Great Satan" to wage jihad.
Because I'm convinced that there's a definite link between OBL, Al Queda and Saddam's Iraq, I believe in my gut that the enemy we're facing in Iraq is virtually the same as AQ.
Until we kill all of these jihadis or the rest surrender, we are at war with Islamist terrorists and all of our lives could potentially be at stake.
So, you'll pardon me if I don't care if every nuance and nicety of the Geneva Convention is observed when American lives are on the line.
Sexual humiliation may keep the NYTimes staff up at night (and it probably does, only they have to pay for it and go down dark alleys in NYC to find it), but if it's a valid technique to subdue those male chauvinist IslamoNazis, by all means, use it--the ladies' underwear on the head included!
Before this crappy story broke, I already held the media responsible in large part, after Al Gore, for the 36-day hell of the Florida recount in 2000.
Now, they've done this non-story (And why? Because they had pictures.)--and they've done this purposefully, not out of compassion for the poor, "tortured" Iraqis, but to weaken the strength and resolve of this country and to hearten that of the Enemy during wartime when our soldiers are in harm's way every day and our citizens could be attacked here at home.
I will never forgive them. Not ever. Not now.
The Partisan Press has gotten 2 weeks' worth of hysteria from the American people out of this "scandal."
When is enough enough?
Don't talk about "torture" in Abu Ghraib when we've got this torture right here at home?
The Media already has the blood of Nick Berg on its hands, at the very least.
Why wasn't that enough?
Shut up, Media, and prepare to die an ugly death, because I don't think I'm alone on being fed up with being manipulated-- to the detriment of my own personal safety and that of millions of other Americans--by the Leftist "4th Estate/" Fifth Column!
(And that goes double for Drudge, who keeps giving it legs on the Web.)
There's still a war on and I'd like to get back to it with my beloved President as Commander-in-Chief and with SecDef Rumsfeld so expertly running the war, thank you.
