You and what army?



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Iraqi Prime Minister Allawi is now threatening military action against the town of Fallujah if residents there don't hand over terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

A few problems here.

1. What right does Allawi have to threaten military action when its OUR TROOPS who will be doing the fighting? Bush didn't want to give the UN command over our troops in Iraq, but now we're giving it to this puppet?

2. Since when do US troops threaten to attack the "residents" of a town unless...? That sounds awfully like what Israel does, and it's the kind of thing that gets you into serious trouble, human-rights-wise, and "winning the hearts and minds"-wise to boot.

This is what we've come to.
