Real Torture And Murder In Iraq: Where's The National Outrage?

Topics: Iraq

California Conservative on the disgrace of no national outcry over the slaughter of Pfc. Kristian Menchaca and Pfc. Thomas Tucker in Iraq by al-Qaeda:

Congressman Mark Kennedy (R-Minnesota) made this statement on the Floor of the House of Representatives today, following the torture and brutal killing of two American soldiers in Iraq.

"Mr. Speaker, where is the outrage? We hear stories today of two of our soldiers having suffered unspeakable torture, and left in a nearly-unrecognizable condition. Yet where are the cries of outrage against this brutality?

"Instead, we hear today of the EU leadership focused on closing Gitmo, and members of this body rushing to judgment on national TV before the facts are known about what our troops in the field have done.

Read the rest...

As Kennedy says in his statement before Congress, ""Our troops deserve our full support, and we must recognize the intensity of evil that we face, the lengths they will go to harm America and undermine our values, and the need to make sure we win this War on Terror to keep our families safe at home." Why is it that so many Democrats and the liberal Left have such a hard time understanding this fact?
