The need to be politically correct is what allowed this guy to remain in the Army. To be a Major and ultimately to commit this crime. Out Military people are constantly being told they have to sensitive, that they can't generalize or stereotype. And while that is good for the most part, at some point you have to say: Gee the Army Major publicly claiming the suicide bombers are justified needs to be removed from the Army. Quax, The vast majority of civilians killed in Iraq and Afghanistan have been killed by Insurgents, Moslems. You can call them freedom fighters, you can call them what you want, but to imply that American Soldiers are the ones killing civilians is nonsense. If you want to claim its a reaction to the presence of American Soldiers that's fine too, but the reality these people are fighting to gain or maintain power.
