Well, oldtony, first of all, it's suicide bomber, unless you for some reason have to use the FNC stylebook. That's like calling French fries Freedom fries, and equally as stupid.

And going by your standards, we should be attacking Somalia, to save lives in Darfur. We should be attacking Zimbabwe; Mugabe's policies are killing people by the millions. And there are probably a dozen other places where people are dying by the tens of thousands. Hell, a Darfur life is worth as much as a Baghdad life. Let's get cracking, warmonger, let's save all those hundreds of billions of equal lives. In the meantime, we wouldn't have enough military capacity left at home to fight off Canada and Mexico if they attacked at the same time. But hell, an American life would be worth as much as a Darfur life, so which lives would we cashier to save American lives?

As you can see, your point is intellectually bankrupt. War is purely strategic, never benevolent. The strategic place to attack was Afghanistan. The opposite of a strategic place to attack was Iraq, where the leader hated Al Queda, and was neutralized.

So your point then is that the Iraqi lives aren't as important? Then tell Ifilius not to try to use them simply to make an argument against America.

And, no, it's homicide bomber. If the goal was suicide and not killing a whole lot of others, they'd hang themselves in a basement somewhere or simply jump from a bridge or window. HOMICIDE is their goal, and it shall also be their name.

You're playing semantics with the lead word only to demonize the enemy, essentially labeling them murderers instead of cowards.

Hmm ... which would you fear more?

I dunno, Doug. We should be more respectful when Brit Hume takes time out to post here.

A simple question: Are American lives worth more than Iraqi lives? Because a lot more than seven were dying a day under Saddam.

Civilians reported killed by military intervention in Iraq: 70243

Killed by our troops? Killed by Al-Qaeda homicide bombers? Got any such information to buttress your argument that America is the great Satan?
