Nazi-esque arrogance



Sunday's NYT frontpage has one subheadline that goes:

OFFICIALS IN IRAQ VOICE DEFIANCE AFTER AIRSTRIKES

Because it galls me so much, I have to say that the NYT exhibits Nazi-like
arrogance in characterizing people who resist a military invasion as
"defiant", as in "how dare you fight back ".

Then of course, "they" have the nerve to characterize the hand grenade
incident in Kuwait as "terrorist" , at first, as if "terrorism" is something
worse than the biggest military attack in history , or that it is somehow
fighting "unfair".

And today Bush warned the Iraqis not to mistreat the American prisoners.
Treat them well or else... or else.. or else we'll bomb the hell out of you !
(?) What is this guy thinking ? He is the twerpiest fascist ever.

I know these are not very political comments, but I just had to get it out.
