US Shame: Slaughter Of The Innocents Continues In Iraq And Afghanistan

*

So, lets see what's new this Wednesday shall we?

Afghanistan scenes of sadness such as shown below certainly aren't;that's for sure.

Here's something else straight from the same place -- though this is something new.

"I stand before you today, deeply, deeply ashamed and terribly sorry that Americans have killed and wounded innocent Afghan people," US army spokesman Col John Nicholson told reporters in Washington by video conference from Afghanistan.

"The deaths and wounding of innocent Afghans at the hands of Americans is a stain on our honour and on the memory of the many Americans who have died defending Afghanistan and the Afghan people.

"We made official apologies on the part of the US government and payments of about $2,000 for each death," he said, after US officials visited some of the families left bereaved by the incident.

Big bloody deal, eh? Two grand per corpse, eh? Well, that's mighty big of you, big Col John. Bully for you.

For shame. Even the stones cry out.

And in the self same news story we're shown quite clearly that it's distinctly still the same old, same old. Some more slaughtered innocent civilians.

... reported deaths of about 50 civilians last week in fighting in western Afghanistan between US-led troops and militants.

In recent days there have been protests by Afghans in different parts of the country - including Jalalabad - over civilian killings.

The bloodshed has returned to levels not seen since the fall of the Taleban in 2001, and a quarter of more than 4,000 people killed last year were believed to have been civilians.

We say again 'For shame'.

Read the rest as reported by the BBC.

Next. Nothing new in the endless number of nauseating images emanating each day from inside Iraq either. Well, is there?

Like little lambs to the slaughter, innocent Iraqi infants serially blown to Kingdom Come. All courtesy of Bush-Blair Co's so called Coalition of the Willing and their phony War on Terror.

So we'll stubbornly stick to saying exactly the same things again. And again, and again, and again. But first, please pass us the puke pail.

For shame. Even the stones cry out.

But who the hell hears them? Anyone? Anywhere?

Anyhow, have you heard about this it yet?

US attack 'kills Iraqi children'

By James Shaw -- BBC News, Baghdad

An attack by a US helicopter against suspected insurgents in Iraq has killed a number of children at a primary school, Iraqi security sources say.

The attack took place in Diyala province north-east of Baghdad, the sources say.

A spokesman for the US military said there had been helicopter activity
in the area but he was not able to confirm any other details.

See the whole sorry story here;see it and weep.

Yet there are still some senseless sods who still insist on asking stupid questions such as 'Why do they hate us?'

Well, here's one sensible and sincere suggestion for said simpletons.

Why don't they (personally), ask some suffering soul such as this pitiful, petrified Afghan adolescent?

For shame. Even the stones cry out.
