You Can't Put Your Arm Around A Memory, But You Can Attack A Military Base During War

I'm not taking sides here. My only enemy is the elusive Bullshit. I hate Bullshit and I hate the mangling of the english language. I'm not afraid of pregnant woman nor do I hate our Freedom. I'm taking the side of intelligent english discourse. Discourse and intercourse. Man, I love intercourse.

Terrorism is when you attack civilians. War happens when you attack military sites. you shoot up a military installation, you get to be in the "WAR" column. You kill a kid while he's watching Spongebob Al Squarepants and you get to be in the "TERROR" category.

Now I know y'all are busy with your Christmas shopping so I won't bother y'all with any unsightly details, but it seems odd to me that when the Iraqi patriots score a tactical victory against their opponents, the United States Army, we hear about it in the news as a terrorist attack. My reaction is "no bitch, that was no terrorist attack. That was a military operation, and according to the rules of kicking ass it was a successful operation. "

Number one, there are no US civilians in Iraq, aside from Clara Barton and her sisters. If you are in Iraq, methinks you're there for a military operation of your own. So if the Iraqis trump your operation with one of their own, you can't be a sore loser and call them "terrorists." Whatever happened to "good game, good game..."? Give some credit where it's due.

(As an aside, if we the United States kill some kids we can't be calling that "collateral damage" at the same time we're calling the defenders of Iraqi soil "terrorists" for hitting their military targets. Everyone gets held to the same standard, ok people?)

So basically it's impossible for a US member of "The Troops" to be killed by "Terrorists." I'm not saying it doesn't suck, I'm just saying if you're in a military uniform and you feel the need to go adventuring through other people's houses and yards and countries, than you better keep it real and give your adversary credit if his paint ball gun tags you better than your's tags his.

And to people who read the news, beware. That black ink on your fingers is made out of bullshit.

hate to break it to you, but the terrorists or whatever you want to call them, in Iraq, have killed a ton of civilans. They use civilians as human shields in fire fights. Do you watch the news or are you too busy peddling child pronography?

I hope you get bird flu.
