To label military special forces strike groups going in after terrorists into as "Death Squads," as though there was something somehow evil about this type of thing, is ridiculous.
People here have been screaming about how we "let bin Laden go" by failing to send our special forces rapidly enough to kill off his terror organization. Where the hell is your capacity to integrate ideas? Can we have a bit of consistency here? Maybe you like the 500-pound bomb idea better?
This dumbass "Death Squad" meme--all thanks to MSNBC ("Al Jazeera West") again--needs to be killed off. I read the original article, and I will bet a week's pay that nobody with any authority in the Pentagon came up with the "Salvador Option" label. Heck, if you worked for the Pentagon, would you even mention El Salvador? The unnamed source could be anyone, and I'm beginning to see a pattern in the "sources" these news articles use.
I wonder how long the authors of the article looked for that picture of the dead nuns to nail their false analogy firmly down. But they know damn well nothing is going to push the hot buttons of the brainless Left in America than invoking El Salvador.
