Why You Shouldn't Watch CNN, Either...

Tonight on CNN... A special about the United State's entry into World War I, with a description of the sinking of the Lusitania. The narrator went on in describing how the sinking of the passenger liner in 1913 signaled a new "no holds-barred," as she described it, kind of warfare where women, children, and civilians in general were legitimate military targets.

In a similar way, she went on to compare this loss of civilian life with the bombings of London, Dresden, and Hiroshima during World War II. However, she went on to compare and insinuate that these horrible disasters of death and destruction were no different than deaths caused by suicide bombers in Iraq.

No. Fundamentally, no. While the bombings of these three cities were horrible and destructive, and possibly only the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki being necessary to end WW II, suicide bombers in Iraq want nothing of victory for a cause or a country. They are not retaliating for the acts of a scourge of mankind so terrible that soldiers were encouraged to take pictures of the death caused by such Nazis so that future generations could never forget. Fanatical suicide bombers in Iraq and other countries want one thing - people dead. Whether it is Christians, non-Muslims, Americans or those cooperating with them, these monsters of terrorism want nothing more than the death of anything and anyone that opposes their fanatical view of how the world should be.

How dare CNN compare that to actions taken during WW II.

How is that news?
