Terrorist's shrewd move in game of death

From Little Green Footballs, I read about the kOs kids that believe this is all a game in which America blunders with a ham fist, but the murderers make "shrewd" moves, ergo, proving once again, America is in the wrong. This is the same group who states fighting to defend and create peace is like "F*cking for virginity". Hey, I thought it catchy myself when I was to immature to think for myself.

The self confessed murderer and thug Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is praised in "Daily Kos: The Eloquence of an Enemy Combatant" (taken down as of this writing).

...KSM delivered a closing statement in broken English that contains
eloquent statements about the nature of war and America’s predisposition to
define.

KSM makes a statement that many in a liberal arts college would find
familiar
; that it is often the winner of a war that dictates its history. If
Britain had beaten out the colonies in the Revolutionary War, he insinuates,
George Washington would not be a hero, but an ‘enemy combatant:’ a
terrorist...

He is saddened by the deaths of the 3000 civilians in Sept. 11,
especially the lives of children, but points out that America too, when pursuing
a target, will knowingly bomb houses with children and innocents inside.
...

Now we are calling killing terrorism, he says, whereas centuries
earlier we called it “manifest destiny” as America wiped out Indian populations.
A shrewd point. ...


The terrorists have not murdered thousands and are not now still slaughtering both soldier and innocent civilians, the terrorists are playing a game in which they have made a shrewd move.

He is likewise preoccupied by making the point that Islam is not a
bloodthirsty religion
. ...there are exceptions to injunctions against violence
found in the Qur’an. It is our “bad luck,” he says, to be included in that
exception. ...

Killing is killing, and we need to stop defining our actions as noble
and holy and the terrorists’ as evil and inhuman. KSM seems as saddened by the
seeming inevitability of war as any pacifist.

He just wants us to admit that there are victims on both sides - that,
to some suffering communities who have been on the wrong end of American bombs, Americans are the inhuman ‘enemy combatants.’

(emphasis mine)



For Christ's sake, if you boil this drivel down it is your basic "Can't we all just get along" statement after one has created murder and mayhem and attempting to deflect blame by blaming. KSM and this diarest have returned to 5th grade parlor tricks to excuse inhuman behavior.

No wonder Kos took this down. Not even a mother would buy this crap.
