Bad News in Iraq
An ambush has killed four American soldiers and their translator and taken three captive, we believe. 4,000 fellow soldiers are looking for the captured, but no luck so far.
Faith allows me to hope for the best but experience compels me to expect the worst. We treat the illegal combatants we capture as if they were real prisoners of war while our uniformed, obeying the rules of war guys are tortured and murdered, so far every time.
That asymmetry can't last forever.
