Sorry Laz. I am just sickened beyond belief of the two news videos and I cannot even get to their motivation.
Whatever we think, the bastards that did this should be impaled on a stake, with bait rubbed on their faces, so the buzzards can pick their eyes out and devour their heads.
But, that’s just me.

When one of our guys was dragged naked through the streets of Somalia after he was killed, Time-Lies saw fit to airbrush out his genitalia. Seems that would have been “offensive” or “exploitative”.

Where was Time-Lies when President Bush was meeting with Iraqi political prisoners Saddam held in Abu Ghraib and who'd had their hands cut off and came to America for new prosthetic limbs?

They ordered her husband to saw off her ears too for the crime of running away from home Sounds like the horror isn't the war, but Sharia Law.
Americans need to wake up.

Hmmm.... Let’s start with bastards that did this and then we can saw off the hands of the people ....
You know, I am just stuck on these bastards.

Time's editor insists that "We do not run this story or show this image either in support of the U.S. war effort or in opposition to it," but that's nonsense, of course.
The real reason they're running this cover is to generate some interest outside of the aging, shrinking, leftist trash subscribers -- and the disclaimer is included to try to hold on to them.

What’s amazing is that Time thinks this is news. This — and much worse! — has been going on for a long time but they have turned their eyes away and pretended that it didn’t exist. And ya know, if they don’t print it, it’s not there. I did a report when I was in college (we won’t say how long ago that was!) about the treatment of women in Saudi culture and this is nothing new.
