Why are American warmongers pretending to be upset over the militants who are producing death and destruction in Iraq; using “terror” as a tool? Isn’t this precisely what the United States did in its earlier attacks on that country, including its terrorist-defined “shock-and-awe” bombing of Baghdad? Aren’t the militants just continuing the murder and destruction in Iraq that led so many Americans to hoist the stars-and-stripes and to urge us all to “support the troops”? Enough shedding of dry tears. In emulating the United States’ policies and practices, these militants are just expressing their commitment to the “new world order!”
