Oh Deary me.
Rawanda: 3 Million died because Muslim Extremists killed the UN protectors and the UN pulled out. We diddnt tell the hutu and tusi to kill each other. We diddnt carpet bomb their villages. We tried to stop it, but because America has always been frightened of offending world opinion, opinion that it is colonial, it stayed out. Thats as far apart from " our troops killing" in Rawanda as possible. We had a go at saving that country, but the tribal hatred was too strong. We vowed that we wouldnt make the same mistake again....
Which leads to Bosnia. A Serbian crackpot genocidal facist starts slaughtering MUSLIM kosavans. We move in to defend them, bomb the Christians till they stop and pull out. We killed Christians to protect MUSLIMS.
Fit that into your thought processes.
In Sudan, we dont have any soldiers. What we do have is ...and forgive me if this sounds repetative....Muslim Terrorists slaughtering civilians.
So. Your point is what? All you have done is provide three very good examples of Western troops shedding blood to protect Muslims and civilians ...from...umm...islamic extremists.
Sheesh!
As to your last point. France is upset...what even France you say? Wow...we might have upset the Chinese as well! Or , heaven forbid the Russians...Who would have thought that the Embargo-breaking, saddam supporting, self serving French would turn against the USA? I mean theres no hatred of America in France is there! LOL! (For Your Infomation, the French have
ALWAYS had a anti-american standpoint. In WW2 the american general Patton said , "I'd rather have a German Division in front of me than a French one behind me". We upset the French...LOL LOL. Now they cant flog their arms to Saddam.
The countries that are "upset" are the Arab and muslim dictatorships who know that their days are numbered if people in Iraq are freed. The Russians, French and Chinese do what they have always done; oppose America.
Now onto the Meat of your Response.
Ignoring the silly claims of 3 million dead in Iraq, have a look at this anti-west, anti-war website. It started counting how many people died in Iraq and how they were killed.
http://www.iraqbodycount.org/
There have been studies based on this which show that since 2003 -
425 innocent Iraqis were
accidentally killed by American mistargeting,
In one year, 2006
16,791 Innocent iraqi's Died from Muslim's Fighting Muslim. That same year showed 72 deaths from stray american bullets, a proportion of these were civilians killed whilst being held as meat-sheilds by Muslim terrorists.
Its utter Nonsense to say "your people kill too". Its YOUR people who are machinegunning Kids and beheading women. The guys with the helmets and in the Humvees are desperatly trying (and dying) to save them. 3000 killed in 4 years.
You say you deplore it when Civilians die. So now...Condem the killers...condem the death squads...condem the suicide bombers...
Put your cards on the table. Condem them.
