Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

That's right, folks. If I hear one more dimwit liberal armchair general complain that the US troops are cruel because they are violating the Law of Armed Conflict (LOAC), I swear to God I'm gonna go permanent-marker crazy on peacenik bumper stickers here in San Diego. People have NO RIGHT to judge the troops unless they themselves have fought in the same types of battles in Vietnam, Korea, or WWII. ONLY THEN can people have a legitimate reason to argue if wars are fought morally.

And the Geneva Convention goes both ways, people. "International Law" as a fundamental precept requires that both warring sides FOLLOW international law. Because once one side decides not to follow international law, all bets should be off!

Do Iraqi insurgents have to worry about boobie-trapped american soldier bodies? Hell no!
Do Iraqi insurgents have to worry about being kidnapped and having their heads sliced off? Hell no!
Do Iraqi insurgents have to worry about the press criticizing every war crime committed by their ilk? Hell no!

It's a friggin' blank check for those guys, and the double standards here are just mind boggling.
