"...and your journey to the Dark Side will be complete."
Oliver Willis posted an entry yesterday in regards to the Nick Berg video. Today, the comments section has all but been overrun by missives much like these:
Who is the coward now??? This is one American who does not apologize for how you assholes were treated in prison. This is fuckin war!!! The only apology I present as an American, was those idiots who mistreated YOUR people were too stupid to realize the trouble they had gotten themselves into for taking pictures of the abuse.
* * *
Though I have seen pictures, I believe that every rag head we see in the U.s. should be severely punished, why the fuck are they aloud to disrespect every military person trying to defend them...Myself and some other people are going to rally,slaughter a pig,smeere the blood over the koran and burn the shit out of thier books just as it should be done to the cowardly people that hurt our people.

When the troops begin to hear about it and react to it, I think we should put out a call to slaughter houses nationwide. Have them save all swine blood so we can ship it there. The troops can dip their all of ammo in it and make sure those extremist bastards get a one way ticket to hell. It may give them pause to reflect their true motives and their relationship with their god.
* * *
When will the media, the bleeding heart liberals, and all the other morons who are defending the rights of these miserable religious fanatics, realize that this is WAR, WAR is killing, the side that kills the most people wins, simple as that, there is nothing decent or humane about killing or about war. So lets stop trying to play God, pretending that we can have a humane, sensitive WAR, and get on with the BUSINESS OF KILLING for that is THE BUSINESS OF WAR...

When you find a deadly virus, you quarantine it, isolate it and then kill it. Do the same thing in Iraq. Either get all Americans out of there ASAP to stop any further executions or just level the place. This will get worse before it get's better so it's time to take charge again. Setup refugee camps on the borders that take in woman and children after you have dropped leaflets advising of the devistation to come and send these animals straight to hell. Almost time for the H Bomb to come out of retirement.

Having just watched the video, I say we carpet bomb the whole damned region and then airdrop a couple of fertile monkeys with instructions not to fuck it up this time.

those fucking ragheads have drug OUR AMERICAN SOLDIERS through the street, and slit their throats and humilated them. and now because of a few measly pictures that arent as bad as they are being put out to be. do you see any american soldiers decapitating any of those prisoners?....umm no. we are taught better. we as americans arent fucking animals. i have an idea, how about we clear all the americans out of iraq soldiers and civillians and then just NUKE that stupid country off the face of the earth. just blast them to hell and make them suffer. period. i am sick of their stupid raghead shit. we have helped them out enough. they all just need to die for this. and yes i agree we need to get all the damn ragheads in the USA and drag them out of their houses at night and slit their throats and send them back to the hell where they came from. why the hell should we be nice to them anymore?
This is over at a Liberal Blog, mind you, not something like FreeRepublic.com1, where you expect this sort of invective at the mere mention of the name "Hillary," even if you're actually referring to the legendary mountain climber who first scaled Everest.
Permit me a Geek Metaphor.
I look at this moment in history as the climactic scene in the throne room at the end of Return of the Jedi. All around the newly built Death Star, which has turned out to be "quite operational," young Skywalker's friends and comrades are being obliterated in a brutally efficient fashion by a cackling evil, a desiccated corpse of a man who is both revelling in the destruction of his foes and in the reaction it is pulling forth in this upstart Jedi.
The Emperor is goading the boy to surrender his integrity. To dispel his principles of justice and good, and instead embrace the corruption of hate and power. To turn, finally, as his father before him, to the Dark Side.
To do so willingly, with little chance of return.
This is, if I may say so, a direct parallel to what the terrorists hoped to accomplish with the public execution of Nick Berg. They are trying to bring forth the baser demons of our nature as Americans, to have us strike with all of our hatred. The five killers on the Berg video are trying to escalate the violence and bloodshed by taunting us.
I quote Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): "When you are the good guys, you've got to act like the good guys."
In this moment in time, we must decide if we can follow the path of the Jedi or fall to the intoxicating power of the Dark Side.
Here endeth the Geek Metaphor.
