"Teribus is at great pains to inform us, with a spate of appropriate (in his opinion) name calling, that we don't understand that this is a war zone,"
The thing to ask is, what makes this a warzone?
What single factor could you remove that woud cause that area to cease being a warzone?
The answer is ....... The Americans.
So the whole point is a reflexive fallacy anyway.
The Americans being there shooting at Iraqis is what makes it a warzone, and the claim that it is a warzone is what legitimizes the shooting of Iraqis.
Teribus - that video shows you and me what murder looks like when committed by cruel conscienceless .... I can't think of a powerful enough noun that describes those horrendous blemishes on the human race.
