America: From Freedom to What? Civilian hostages. Coral depths. Politically held tongues. Pool hall romances. Plus more.

(Page 3 of 13)

br> Re: Christopher Orlet's Civilian Shields : /p>

It's indisputable that Hezbollah launch their Israel-bound missiles from civilian enclaves. What is becoming unmistakably clear is that the Islamist war criminals -- or, "freedom fighters" if you prefer -- choose their launch sites through a combination of cowardice ("Don't shoot! Can't you see there are women and children near me?") and media savvy ("Move the martyrs into position! Allah has arranged that the infidel bombs will strike in ten minutes! Cameras ready!").

As we begin to better understand the enemy and his depravity, a new code of ethics should be adopted by the media. It would go something like this: "We report on -- but do not show images of -- casualties that may have been staged by militants drawing fire into civilian targets."

p>These images are produced and directed by the jihadists. Journalists should stop being the distributors of such pornography. br> -- GnuCarSmell br> Jacksonville, Texas /p>
