Excellent story. And it highlights one of those "cultural differences" for which the US always gets bashed for not understanding. We heal our prisoners, even if they are criminals like Saddam. They behead theirs. Moral equivalency bump.

Very poignant statement, my friend. And yet, we are still considered the "terrorists" by the majority of the world...

Not that I give a rat's ass about what the world thinks...

And think of the condition Jessica Lynch was in when she was rescued.
