6. We are a bullying nation. We cheer for bullies.
U.S. Generals ordering their troops to 'treat the Iraqis like dogs' and getting cheered, mindlessly, while Presidents claim the right to invade and abuse and humiliate and torture citizens of other countries. And we hold no one responsible.

I don't know anything about this gang of thugs, but I'd be willing to bet that they come from families who call Muslims 'ragheads' and who laugh at Rush Limbaugh's jokes about tortured Iraqis whining over 'wearing underwear on their heads'.

Bullies are cowards generally. Notice how they always travel in gangs, in this case four to one.

I don't understand how a child can be abused like this for any period of time without the adults involved not knowing what is going on.
