Thread Name: BS: Who is worse - Sunnis or Shiites
Subject: RE: BS: Who is worse - Sunnis or Shiites
This is the 30th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, and the defeat of the US in Vietnam. We are once again seeing those desperate, depressing pictures of that time--and we WILL be seeing the same sort of outcome in Iraq one day. There is nothing "winnable" about the mess we created in Iraq, any more than Vietnam was "winnable"--because we are wrong, wrong, wrong in what we are doing. Which is nothing more than slaughtering innocents around the world.

3 million Vietnamese, 600,000 Cambodians, over 100,000 Iraqis...

The US is, quite simply, slaughtering MILLIONS of human beings in the name of "national security".

That's a whole lot of blood on our hands--the Sunnis and Shiites could never be as bad or evil as the US when it comes to political violence and the wholesale slaughter of innocent human beings. They will never come close to the depths of the depravity of the US.
