Never believe your own propaganda.

It's gets countries into messes like Iraq.

Try to think critically. Observe reality. Maintain a perspective. Use common sense.

For instance, IF Saddam's kids were that bad, and that's not assured, but IF they were, how is that different than American troops raping a girl and then killing her and her family?

If Saddam was a brutal, torturing SOB, which he was, how is that different than when the US took over his prison at Abu Ghraib and continued the torture?

If Saddam was reprehensible, how is the US NOT reprehensible for the same actions? And if the US gives Saddam WMDs and helps him use them, how is the US not culpable? If you give a child a loaded gun, are you not somewhat responsible for what happens?

Makes for interesting minds.
