Fallujah and barbarism

Peggy Noonan has a few words to say about the barbarity in Fallujah yesterday: "It is hard not to hate the teenagers and young men who celebrated under the bridge where they hanged the charred bodies. They are human expressions of nihilism. They take pleasure in evil, and they were not shy to show it. They are arrogant. They think barbarity is their right.

If this time, in this incident, these young men are left unchecked, their ways and attitudes, their assumptions and method of operating will only be encouraged, and spread. So we had better check them." By the way,
The New York Times shows a large above the fold color photo of two charred bodies hanging off the bridge in Fallujah. Does anyone want to argue that the Times is not on the Left? So much for all the news that’s fit to print.

NYT only showed a picture. Disgusting yes.....true, absolutely.

Did it ever occur to the NYT that it’s an American newspaper and that the bodies shown hanging there are Americans with family and loved ones here who are thus being forced to see their loved ones remains defiled?
