Flash, Bang, wallop - What a Picture!
Well George 'doesn't like it one bit' apparently, which should comfort the Iraqis subjected to humiliation, indignity and mental torture during their incarceration. I expect that the Arab world will understand that it's just a few bad apples blackening the name of the coalition forces. Tony's upset as well.Just when you think things couldn't get any worse. Y'know after a week when conservative estimates put the civilian dead in Fallujah at 800ish. It really is starting to resemble the Vietnam debacle. American body bags arriving daily at Dover Delaware, allegations of American brutality against civilians and now the mistreatment of prisoners. The one major difference between then and now though is the control of the press and TV.
When images sneak through the *firewall* that is the modern USA Military machine though, the similarities reverberate. I wonder how many more incidences have occurred that have not been photographed or recorded?
What's next? A My Lai equivalent?
On a lighter note: cheese soup? What the fuck's that about? What addled brain considers cheese soup edible? What addled brain thought it would be acceptable to heat up his cheese soup in our fucking office microwave? I don't think I've ever encountered a stench like it in my life and I don't think I ever will. The idea that someone - a human being for Christ's sake - would have smelt that and then put the curdled, steaming shite in his mouth makes me gip*. Three hours later we could still smell the odious, insidious miasma throughout the office.
No doubt, in a few days time, the decaying body of the twat with the soup will be as ripe as his lunch.
*Gip, gipping, gipped - A Northern word. To be on the verge of vomiting. Also known as gag, gagging, gagged.
